Sky-Blue Medallion Nahavand Runner

A graphic village piece in natural dyes with real presence.

This Nahavand from the Hamadan region shows the type at its most characterful. An espresso-walnut field anchors a bold stepped medallion drawn in sky blue with coral and brick accents, outlined in ivory for snap. Around it, you’ll spot boxy cartouches, latch-hook motifs, tiny rosettes, and those quirky village “house” and shrub shapes Nahavand weavers love. The border runs olive-moss with a rosette-and-vine meander that frames everything tightly.

Because the wool was vegetable-dyed, there is gentle abrash, especially in the blues and russets, which gives the surface movement without feeling busy. Hand knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, circa 1970s-1980s, with a tidy, medium-low pile that wears well in real life.

At 3’5” x 8’4”, the proportions are ideal for an entry, a hallway, or a kitchen galley, and it’s great along a bed or under a console too. The palette plays beautifully with pale walls, natural wood floors, and black metal or leather. If you want a runner that reads warm, architectural, and unmistakably village-made, this Nahavand is the one you live with, not tiptoe around.

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.
