This 11 x 13'3 Vintage Persian Heriz Rug showcases the bold architectural geometry Heriz rugs are celebrated for, rendered in beautifully softened, time-muted navy and ivory tones. Its oversized proportions make it ideal for grand living rooms, formal dining spaces, and large open interiors. The design balances strength and elegance, creating a commanding yet refined presence.
Design and Motifs
The rug features a classic geometric Heriz medallion anchored at the center, surrounded by angular floral motifs and stylized botanical elements. The structured symmetry reflects traditional Northwest Persian artistry, while the aged coloration gives it a relaxed, collected aesthetic. The powerful central medallion radiates outward with sharp, architectural lines characteristic of authentic Heriz weaving.
Border and Framing
A wide ivory border frames the composition with tribal rosettes, stylized leaves, and geometric floral elements. Guard borders in navy and mocha tones provide depth and contrast, reinforcing the strong frame that Heriz rugs are known for.
Colors and Their Placement
The dominant ivory field softens the bold navy medallion. Muted navy and deep indigo define the central medallion and surrounding motifs, while espresso and mocha browns add warmth and grounding. Accents of antique gold, taupe, and charcoal create subtle depth and dimension throughout the design.
Materials and Craftsmanship
Hand knotted in Northwest Persia, this Heriz rug is woven from durable wool known for its strength and resilience. Heriz rugs are prized for their sturdy foundation and long-lasting structure, making them ideal for high-traffic spaces while maintaining refined character.
Heriz Rugs
Heriz rugs originate from the mountainous region of Northwest Iran, where weavers traditionally produce bold, geometric designs with strong medallions. The firm structure and angular motifs distinguish Heriz from more curvilinear Persian styles.
Condition Note
This vintage rug displays beautifully muted tones consistent with age and character. The wool pile remains strong and substantial, preserving its durability and visual impact.
