3x9.5 Vintage Karaja Rug Runner

:: Single column center medallion in varying contour, design and partial asymmetric relief. Tons of colors, with weeping willow design floral fills in the main field. Awesome contrast of hook and latch design motif enveloping several of the main medallions. Main border in a simplistic germinating blossom and floral top view starburst design element with inner and outer minor border in a primitive blossom design rendering with meandering vine. Colors and shades include: Brick red, jade green, sapphire blue, pale gold, beige, sand, dusty saffron, madder root red, tomato red, and more. Condition notes: Mostly even pile height across. Most of the original side cord selvages are intact or restored. Fully secured sides and ends. At some point in its past this carpet had been professionally reduced from it's original size and length, likely in longer proportions as the end border on the reverse side of the carpet shows interior reduction and concealed in-seaming and adhesive. The work is quite convincing on the face of the carpet. Recently professionally cleaned ready for in-home use! Many years of enjoyment to come with this hand knotted Persian Karaja rug runner made in Persia circa 1940's vintage. Size measures 3'2" x 9'7".
