Antique Persian Bakshaish Runner

No. 31522
Persia, Early 20th Century
3 ft. 2 in. x 12 ft. 3 in.
(0.97 x 3.73 m)

A wool pile of symmetric knots on a cotton foundation. The madder-red field displays a central elongated pole medallion composed of four octagons, each with apex-bent leaves and lower paired barbed leaves, in the general Caucasian Lenkoran manner. The pole terminates in arrowhead finials, and the small corners are stepped. The red, strip-style main border features rosettes and serrated, slanted leaves, with prominent bottle-green accents. An ecru outer stripe with reversing fan palmettes frames the composition.
