This is a beautiful and fine quality tribal and geometric handmade vintage Persian Hamedan runner, hand-knotted in the 1980s and in mint condition.  The allover repeating paisley (known as boteh, an ancient precursor to paisley) design is a wonderful mix of earthy colors on a beautiful navy blue background.  Paisleys of rustic red, salmon pink, dusty rose, olive green, ivory, yellow, black and jam purple harmonize beautifully on the lush navy blue backdrop.  This allover design is bordered by a series of intricate repeating tribal details in several rows, from a pink row with small paisleys to a blue row with small diamonds to a thick red row of arrow-like motifs in all the colors of the rug.  All colors are made from only vegetable and other natural dyes.  Perfect for high traffic areas, this runner has a soft sturdy pile that will continue to last generations.   Size: 3'5"x9'4"
