Melas Hallway Runner
3 × 9 ft · 78 × 273 cm · Rust, Apricot & Ivory
A chain of stepped medallions in rust and apricot down a slender runner, framed by an ivory leaf border — hand-knotted in wool in the Melas tradition of southwestern Anatolia.
Melas — Anatolian Weaving Tradition
The Melas (also Milas) tradition takes its name from the town of Milaş in southwestern Anatolia, on the Aegean coast of Turkey. The region's weavers have made rugs for centuries, often with warm rust-reds, apricot and ivory and a geometric drawing of medallions and floral borders.
This is a new, unused piece, hand-knotted in wool on a wool foundation in the Turkish (Ghiordes) knot. It carries the Melas vocabulary in fresh, clear colour.
Colour and Composition
A central chain of stepped hexagonal medallions runs the length of the piece, alternating between rust-red and apricot grounds, each medallion filled with stylised blossoms, small cruciform flowers and diamond stars. The field is framed by an ivory main border of diagonally running leaf-and-vine motifs, flanked by narrow dove-blue and rust guard stripes, with floral sprays in the corner spandrels. The palette runs across rust-red, apricot-salmon, ivory, dove blue and mustard-gold with touches of soft green and dark brown.
Presence in the Room
At 78 × 273 cm (2.1 m²) this is a classic hallway runner format. Three settings in which it works well:
- Hallway or corridor: the runner format follows the line of a passage, and the warm palette brings colour to a transitional space.
- Staircase: the elongated proportions suit a stair-runner installation.
- Beside a long sofa or kitchen island: as a runner-format accent along a long piece of furniture.
