Description
This gorgeous Peshawar rug runner is quite the looker. It is from the city of Peshawar, Pakistan which is where it got its name. Peshawar is the home to many Afghani refugees who have brought with them their rug weaving abilities. It is for this reason that you’ll see some of the most beautiful rugs coming out of this area.
Peshawar rugs of this type are made to look like antique Tabriz rugs from the turn of the century. 100+ year old rugs tend to have this lovely golden patina from years of use and sun-fading. Peshawar rugs are made to mimic this look using hand-spun wools and neutral tones. This particular rug has a vivid blue field which looks different from every angle. Pay attention to the two full-length shots of the rugs that are posted. You will be able to compare and contrast how this rug looks from one end to the other. This Peshawar rug runner would be a gorgeous pick for an entryway. You can see examples of Persian rugs in entryways here. As a bonus, the dark blue will hide the dirt!
