(High-Decorative) ("New Arrivals Gallery") Malayer camelhair carpets in runner dimensions are especially prized for their luminous ambiance and versatile, harmonious artistry. This engaging earth-toned piece offers ultra-stylized botanical design enhanced by extraordinary attention to detail applied to the treatment of its creatively interpreted forms. Within a well-proportioned reserve, the glowing camelhair ground brings unusual lightness to the composition. Its repeated elemental tree design is appealingly uncluttered and striking within a subtly changing latticework aligned with casual symmetry. Each motif is drawn with slight variations in line and hue that reveal the hand of its innately creative early 20th-century weavers. At all four edges the motifs are interrupted, suggesting a continuation beyond the borders. Among a rich, diverse color palette, a particularly fetching shade of burgundy ground color in the border encourages the poppy blossoms to shine. This handsome runner has mostly heavier pile after more than a century of age.
