RESERVED 7.5x16 Vintage Afshar Carpet Runner

Unusual proportions, deeply patterned

Hallways and great rooms ask for presence, not clutter. This 7'6" x 16'2" Afshar runner stretches the eye with its rare scale and steady rhythm of triple medallions. The palette—cherry red, mallard green, sky blue, indigo, and ivory—settles a space without shouting. Professionally cleaned and secured, it arrives ready for in‑home use.

Color that breathes

The 1920s Persian weaving carries birds, animals, and Herati-inspired motifs that reward a second look. Mostly even wear softens the surface to a matte, lived-in calm, with a fully restored end for longevity. Its age reads as character, not fuss—an anchor for rooms where people actually linger.

Someone seeking a substantial vintage Persian runner with balanced wear, refined color, and a story-worn hand for an entry, gallery, or long living space.
