This magnificent antique Shahsavan kilim runner is an exceptional example of tribal textile artistry from northwest Iran, celebrated for its fineness of weave, clarity of design, and stylised geometry. Woven by the Shahsavan nomads, this piece is not only decorative but also a valuable collector’s item.

The runner features three large central medallions, each separated by geometric lozenges, giving the piece a rhythmic, architectural flow. The background is a sophisticated grey-brown tone, enriched with natural abrushes—gentle, intentional variations in dye—that lend depth, movement, and organic character to the composition.

Framing the design is an olive green border filled with stylised flower heads, subtly structured and elegant, adding contrast and softness to the angular field motifs. A narrow cream border encloses the piece, offering clarity and completing the visual balance.

With its refined weaving technique, harmonious color palette, and rich design details, this kilim is perfect for those who appreciate tribal craftsmanship and uncommon design sophistication. Whether used in a hallway, gallery space, or curated interior, this runner is both functional and deeply artistic.
