Antique Heriz Sultanabad Runner — Sky-Blue Border, Madder-Red Field

This Sultanabad runner comes from the Heriz weaving district of East Azerbaijan, where village weavers translated classical Persian palmette designs into bold, angular patterns entirely from memory.
The result is something rarer than a typical Heriz: an allover vine-and-palmette field with no central medallion, framed by an unusual sky-blue border that collectors actively seek out.

• ✔ Rare allover palmette field, no medallion
• ✔ Sky-blue border — an earlier, sought-after variant
• ✔ Natural wool pile: warm, resilient, breathes underfoot
• ✔ Brings rich colour and character to a hallway or study
• ✔ Genuine antique hand-knotting, built to last generations

Lay it in a hallway, along a bedroom wall, or beside a dining table — the saturated madder-red field and cool blue border add depth without crowding a room.
