{"product_id":"persian-hashtroud-runner-red-blue-3x11ft","title":"Persian Hashtroud Runner | 3' 5\" × 11' 4\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe diagonal movement is the first thing to notice in this NW Persian Hashtroud runner. Fine bands of red, navy and cream run across the field at an angle, carrying the eye from side to side as well as along its length. This gives the rug an energetic surface, with colour distributed throughout the composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt closer range, the bands reveal their small patterned details. They are more intricate than plain stripes, yet they combine into a clear overall rhythm when viewed from farther away. The straight border provides a useful counterbalance to the diagonals, keeping the lively centre contained within a well-defined frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt over eleven feet long and three feet five inches wide, it could make a strong visual connection through a generous hallway. It would also be interesting beside furniture with simple, straight lines, where the diagonal pattern adds movement. Picking up just one of its colours in nearby textiles or artwork would let the runner feel connected to the room without repeating its busy pattern everywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHashtroud lies in East Azerbaijan in northwestern Iran, within one of Persia's historically important carpet-producing regions. Nineteenth-century accounts identify Azerbaijan among the country's principal weaving areas, and research on the period notes the persistence of regional designs even as export demand changed the industry. This runner offers a distinctive example of the area's variety: its diagonal bands organise the whole field, giving repeated small details a strong direction and a lively overall rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRug Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Circa 1950s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hashtroud, East Azerbaijan province, NW Persia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-knotted wool pile on a wool foundation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3' 5\" × 11' 4\" (approximately 104 × 345 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Rug the Rock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51479720001753,"sku":"9684","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0631\/1460\/8857\/files\/rtr-10389827322073-approved-hero-20261105-3x4.png?v=1793912701","url":"https:\/\/rugtherock.com\/products\/persian-hashtroud-runner-red-blue-3x11ft","provider":"Rug the Rock ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
