-AL62.jpg "Long Persian Wool Runner, - This is striking Persian runner from the Sultanabad district in West Persia. The design is dominated by two dramatically drawn medallions in a lovely sky-blue on a sapphire background. The medallions are surrounded by stylised palmettes and plants drawn in a charming angular manner. The design is freely drawn, displaying the weaver's artistic skills. This is a visual feast, and is a demonstration of Persian village weaving at its best. The materials, handspun wool and natural dyes, are excellent. Furthermore the size is excellent, exceptionally narrow for a piece of this length. Cherished through the generations, it has survived in excellent condition. Professionally cleaned in our workshops, it is ready for immediate use.")
-SW990.jpg "Striking Sarab Runner - This handsome runner is very beautiful designed with fine camel wool and wonderful dyes. I would date it to around 1870. Note the ton-sur-ton field and the medallions which appear to be floating above the field. Although it is in generally good pile, unfortunately it has lost the borders at each end. It is still nevertheless a very decorative and impressive runner which would light up many settings.")
