This Sarab runner, 99 x 556 cm, presents an elongated chain of diamond medallions along a delicately patterned neutral field. The restrained colour palette of brown, cream and white is lifted by dusky rose and indigo accents within each lozenge. A series of narrow guard borders and a broad tonal outer ground offer a measured frame. Low distress keeps pattern clarity intact while subtle abrash and a softly worn surface impart tactile, lived-in character. Circa 1900 - 1915, this antique rug shows considered craft and a calm, disciplined repeat. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
