A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation. A vintage Persian Malayer runner. A visual pair to rug # 21377. This west Persian town runner displays an unusual version of the Herati pattern on its grey field: a chain of fringed lozenges runs the length of the field and pairs of slightly curved ‘fish’ leaves flank this backbone. A forked vine and flattened pyramidal palmettes decorates the old ivory main border.
