There is a reason antique Heriz rugs have remained among the most beloved Persian rugs for over a century. Woven in the rugged mountains of northwest Persia during the 1920s, they are celebrated for their bold tribal artistry, architectural geometry, and incredible durability.
This 10’5 x 14’ beauty has all the powerful character collectors hope to find. The large geometric medallion anchors the composition, with beautiful ombré shifts of color that add remarkable depth and movement. Crisp ivory corner spandrels brighten the field, while one of the most unusual features is its spectacular border. Rather than a typical floral design, it showcases oversized medallions that give the rug even more presence and individuality.
The vivid vegetable dyed wool has aged beautifully, offering rich brick reds, deep navy, soft ivory, denim blue, celadon green, and subtle blush accents. The colors remain wonderfully saturated while carrying the warmth and softness only a century of life can create.
In good condition, the wool pile remains full making this an exceptionally sturdy antique ready for everyday living. It has a phenomenal handle, substantial weight, and the kind of enduring craftsmanship that has allowed Heriz rugs to remain favorites for generations. In great condition and at awesome value, thank you for shopping small.
This beautiful beast will not disappoint!
