Originating from the rugged northwest mountains of Persia, this antique 1930s Persian Heriz rug has a lot of personality. This remarkable piece of floor art, highly sought after, boasts dimensions rarely found among its counterparts: an expansive 10x16 size, a treasure among collectors. Heriz rugs usually come in an 8x11 or a 9x12 size, so this oversized rug is a real treat.
Woven by hand using vegetable-dyed wool, its warm and inviting color story draws you in. At its heart lies a stunning center medallion set against a rich rhubarb backdrop, complemented by French blue corner spandrels. Nature-inspired tribal art adorns its surface with intricate angular designs, each a wonderful example of ancient weaving traditions. Ornate border bands frame the composition, adding depth and charm.
Despite its age, this rug remains remarkably well-preserved and clean, a nod to its enduring quality. It’s a very durable Persian rug and will withstand generations.
