2'1 x 7'3 Hand-Knotted Persian Karaja Carpet Runner

Item Details

This authentic hand-knotted Persian Karaja runner is characterized by its bold geometric composition and vibrant Northwest Persian color palette. The central field is dominated by a deep madder red, hosting a vertical sequence of alternating medallions—a hallmark of Karaja weavers—rendered in saturated tones of navy blue, forest green, and ivory. Intricate secondary motifs, including stylized birds and angular floral rosettes, populate the negative space, reflecting the tribal heritage of the Azerbaijan region. The runner is framed by a sophisticated triple border, featuring a primary cream-ground border with geometric vine work. Constructed with a resilient wool pile on a sturdy foundation, this textile demonstrates the durable craftsmanship and rigid geometric aesthetic common to the village of Karaja, making it a highly functional and decorative piece for high-traffic transitional spaces.
