This early 20th-century Persian runner features an allover boteh motif—each paisley shape drawn with slight variation, revealing the weaver’s hand. The deep brick red field has softened through decades of use, showing gentle abrash and visible wear along the center. The border balances precision and warmth, with rosette and vine motifs rendered in ivory, navy, and faded rust.
Natural wear has softened both the pile and palette, especially along the center, where age patina is most visible. The result is a lived-in, timeworn surface with a subtle sheen and understated presence.
