This scarce antique Khamseh tribal runner from the South of Iran is a highly sought-after piece, celebrated for its rare format and captivating design. It is uncommon to find Khamseh runners at all—let alone ones with such a distinctive light blue ground.

A series of tribal medallions runs through the centre of the rug, surrounded by charming animal and floral motifs, including birds, dogs, and stylised flower heads. These elements offer a vivid snapshot of the nomadic Khamseh aesthetic, full of symbolism and storytelling.
