This Qum runner is a real gem. Meticulously hand-knotted in Qom, a Persian city renowned for its fine rugs, it has a luxurious kork (high-quality) wool pile, so you get that velvety feel underfoot combined with long-lasting durability.
At first glance, you’ll be drawn to the dramatic midnight-navy field, filled with swirling floral vines in soft blush, sage-green, and gold accents. The focal point is striking crimson-red medallions, each brimming with finely detailed blossoms that look almost painterly.
Measuring less than 3 by 9 feet, this narrow yet stately piece is the perfect fit for a grand hallway, to liven up the space behind a sofa, or to add a touch of luxury on either side of a bed.
If you’re after a runner that balances intricate artistry and top-tier materials, this fine Qum might just be the star your home has been waiting for.
