90037 Antique Persian Dergazine Hamadan Rug Runner, 02'09 x 20'10.
Lush with romantic opulence and rich cultural resonance, this hand-knotted wool antique Persian Dergazine Hamadan rug runner is a rare jewel of refined village craftsmanship. Woven in the storied weaving region of western Iran, this piece captures the elegance of formal Sarouk-inspired floral design while embracing the earthy authenticity of Hamadan’s artisanal traditions. The red field glows like burnished garnet, creating a dramatic stage upon which a luxuriant allover pattern of blossoming sprays unfurls in rhythmic grace. Each flower—delicately rendered in maroon, taupe, pink, and sage-gray—seems to float in motion, forming a dense garden that blooms with effortless sophistication and poetic splendor.
This graceful arrangement of floral sprays evokes a cultivated garden at full bloom—simultaneously cultivated and wild—where each petal appears suspended in time. Blossoms rise in soft symmetry, their organic curves balanced by the intricately rendered vine work that binds them together. The colors are harmonized with precision: tan and beige lend warmth and lightness, while deeper shades of brown and maroon ground the composition in sensual richness. The floral bouquets do not merely decorate—they whisper stories of renewal, grace, and nature’s eternal rhythm, elevating the runner from textile to living art.
Framing this floral reverie is a stately border of rosette floral bouquets on a midnight-black ground, their dark elegance amplifying the vibrancy of the interior field. Each rosette bursts with finely drawn petals, anchored by the serpentine flow of surrounding vines, creating a regal enclosure for the radiant garden within. Flanking this primary border are inner and outer guard bands—each adorned with a meandering carnation motif on a refined beige backdrop—offering both balance and embellishment. These layers of ornamentation lend an architectural formality to the design, guiding the eye while enriching the runner’s ornamental depth.
An heirloom of historical and decorative significance, this antique Dergazine Hamadan runner radiates a sense of cultivated grandeur. Its elegant proportions and sophisticated floral design make it an exquisite addition to interiors seeking timeless romance—whether framing the hall of a classically appointed estate, lending grace to a curated boutique, or softening the edges of a contemporary retreat. With its masterful palette and luxurious presence, this piece embodies the enduring allure of Persian weaving artistry at its most enchanting.
