About This Ravar
Where it comes from
This is a Ravar Kerman runner, also written Rawar, 422 x 83 cm (13'10" x 2'9"), from the town near Kerman that set the standard for fine Persian weaving since the Qajar era. Ravar pieces were prized across Europe and America for that refinement, often signed by weaver or patron. Here the classic medallion design runs the length of the runner as a sequence, rather than gathering around one centre.
What you see
The field is a deep, near-black navy, dense with fine floral scrollwork in the mahi tradition. Along its length runs a chain of medallions, small starbursts alternating with larger gold rosettes, picked out in rust red, ochre, cream, salmon and sage. No two look quite alike, each varying slightly in size and inner drawing, so the chain reads as a sequence rather than pure repetition. A wide rust-brown border, close-set with small florals, closes the field firmly at each edge.
How it was made
The pile is handspun wool, knotted by hand onto a cotton warp at a density of 321,000 to 380,000 knots per square metre. That density is what lets each medallion carry its own inner drawing rather than a repeated stencil, and what keeps the mahi ground legible rather than blurring into texture. The pile itself is kept short, twelve millimetres, so the drawing stays sharp underfoot, and a light sheen gathers in the gold and cream of the medallions where the wool catches light.
At home
A runner this length suits a hallway or landing, taken in a few steps at a time rather than all at once. The deep navy holds its own without daylight, while the gold medallions catch whatever light there is as you pass. The short, dense pile takes daily footsteps without complaint, each medallion offering something slightly different along the way.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 422 × 83 cm (3.50 m²) this is a runner. It belongs in a hallway, an entrance, on a landing or lengthways beside a bed. It is too narrow for the middle of a room.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 321,000 to 380,000 knots per square metre; across 3.50 m² that is roughly 1.1 to 1.3 million individual knots, every one of them tied by hand.
How do I care for this rug?
Hand-spun wool still carries its own lanolin, which keeps liquid sitting on the surface for a moment: blot quickly, with clear water and a light cloth, working inwards and without rubbing. Otherwise regular vacuuming along the pile is enough. Turn the rug once or twice a year so light and footfall reach it evenly.
