If you’ve been hunting for a statement corridor piece, this Hamadan runner is the real deal. Five nested octagonal medallions march down a field of mellow terra‑cotta abrash that fades gently into weathered chestnut—proof of decades of sunlight and honest wear. Each medallion is ringed with tiny ivory latch‑hooks and filled with stylised willow motifs in sage, slate‑grey, and brick.
The border is pure village storytelling: angular motifs, lozenges, and shy little flowers, all drawn in a soft mineral‑green that feels almost Art‑Deco against the red ground. Despite its generous length, the runner is only 7 mm thick, so doors glide over it and vacuuming is a breeze.
Perfect spots: a long hallway, behind a sofa in an open‑plan loft, or flanking a galley kitchen where its earthy palette can play off copper cookware and stone counters. Think of it as a river of Persian folk art guiding guests from one room to the next.

Please Consider
Our rugs are truly unique and crafted with care. Their vintage and handmade nature means they may have imperfections and signs of wear, which add character. Each rug is handmade, so it may not be a perfect rectangle.
We strive to capture the rugs’ true colors in daylight photography, but they might appear slightly different in low-light environments or on different screen settings.
We’re happy to provide photos taken in different lighting or answer any questions.
Feel free to reach out if you need more information or assistance.
Sustainability
For every rug you purchase, we plant one tree.
Choosing vintage and antique rugs reduces waste, lowers the demand for new materials, and extends product lifespan—reducing your carbon footprint. Our rugs are crafted from natural and recyclable materials, promoting sustainability and environmental friendliness.

Care Instructions
Vacuuming
Regular vacuuming keeps your rug looking its best and extends its lifespan, reducing the need for professional cleaning. For best results, vacuum both the front and back sides of the rug from side to side, avoiding the fringes.
Spills
If spills occur, blot them immediately with a cloth. Then spray water on the spot and blot again, repeating as needed. For pet urine, spray white vinegar to help break down the enzymes that cause odor.
Professional Rug Cleaning
It’s generally recommended to have your rug professionally cleaned every five years, but trust your instincts—if it appears to need cleaning, don’t hesitate to have it washed. Hand-knotted carpets should never be dry cleaned or steam cleaned. Wall-to-wall carpet cleaning companies are usually not a good option. Always choose a professional rug cleaner who specializes in cleaning fine, handwoven carpets. If you’re in the GTA, we can provide professional rug cleaning for you!
