Totemic Luri Runner in Madder Red (3’1” x 8’8”)

Tribal, graphic, and all-wool from western Persia.

This vintage Luri runner has that bold, totemic look the tribe is loved for. The field is a saturated madder red with natural abrash that shifts gently from brick to russet as you move along the length. Marching up the center are stacked diamond medallions and chalice-like devices, drawn in deep walnut brown with inky accents. Between them, small pinwheel rosettes act like protective amulets. The border is a serrated zigzag that frames the composition with real energy.

It is hand knotted in a wool pile on a wool foundation from western Persia, circa 1970s, so the handle is supple and the surface has that quiet, velvety sheen you only get with tribal wool.

Design-wise, this is classic Luri geometry: big shapes, clear negative space, and a palette that plays well with woods, stone, and black metal. At 3’1” x 8’8”, it is made for a hallway, a kitchen galley, along a bed, or in front of a long console. If you are after a runner that reads warm, graphic, and authentically village-made, this one delivers without trying too hard.

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!

Rug Pads

Using a rug pad with your vintage rug may extend its life and provide extra traction and protection for your floors. To learn more about the pros and cons of rug pads, read this article.
