2.5×10 Vintage Fine Lilihan Rug Runner

:: Columned repeating germinating plants and tree of life design motif carried through in a column design with deeply shaded blossoms and thin, intricately drawn, vines. Colors and shades include: Dark navy blue, indigo blue, gem tone forest green, pale raspberry red, dusty blush, copper, terracotta, sapphire blue, and more. Condition notes: Areas of pile and knot heads. Fully secured sides and ends. Machine binding which appears to be applied in a reversible manner and likely over-wrapping the original side cord selvages in part or full. Originally a painted, period correct, carpet with subsequent additions to shades added over time, namely the darker navy blue field in minor areas of touch-ups. However, the following shades appear to be original, as painted: all forest green / deep lime green, many of the raspberry reds, some of the copper, and possible sapphire blue shades. Exceptional quality wool with high luster and sheen with silk-like appearance and feel. Recently professionally cleaned ready for in-home use! Many years of enjoyment to come with this hand knotted Persian Lilihan rug runner made in Persia circa 1930’s vintage. Size measures 2’9″ x 10’2″.
