12x3 ft Antique 1950s Malayaar Runner Rug: Hand Knotted Wool Tribal Hallway Carpet, Vintage Nomadic Design

Malayaar rugs originate from tribal regions known for producing durable, boldly patterned runners prized for their practicality and beauty. Traditionally hand-knotted on narrow looms, they were made to fit the elongated layouts of tents and village homes. Patterns often feature repeating geometric motifs symbolizing strength, prosperity, and spiritual protection. By the 1950s, these rugs had become highly sought after in both rural and urban homes, blending centuries-old tribal identity with functional elegance.

A rare tribal treasure for statement hallways
This 1950s hand knotted Malayaar runner stretches an impressive 12.10 x 3.5 ft, making it a dramatic, heritage-filled centerpiece for hallways, entryways, and long corridors. Crafted entirely from pure wool, it embodies the endurance, artistry, and rich symbolism of the Malayaar tribal weaving tradition.

Every knot was tied by hand using techniques passed down through generations. The bold tribal motifs are more than decorative—they carry symbolic meaning for protection, fertility, and prosperity. Its naturally aged wool shows a soft patina, telling a story of over 70 years of history.
