This room-size antique Heriz is a cut above. While many Heriz rugs out in the world follow a familiar formula, this one makes its own rules — and does it beautifully.
The composition is bold but elevated, with strong tribal motifs that feel both intentional and deeply expressive. In the field, a network of angular vines creates a sense of flow and connection — linking stylized rosettes, latch-hook medallions, and abstract floral forms in a beautifully orchestrated dance. It’s all about movement and relationship. Each motif is rooted, but also reaching — like a garden growing in every direction, structured yet alive.
The border deserves special attention. Instead of the typical stepped flower or serrated leaf pattern you often see in Heriz rugs, this one features more intricate botanical art — including scrolling tendrils, rosettes with extra detail, and corner treatments that show off the weaver’s hand and imagination. It’s a departure from the norm, a signature that adds both visual richness and a sense of individuality.
The palette is aged to perfection — soft rusts, mellowed brick red, steely blues, and earthy neutrals, all worn evenly over time into a chalky, matte finish. It reads soulful and storied. From the 1920s and hand-woven in northwest Persia, this piece is made of durable vegetable-dyed wool and still has plenty of life ahead.
It has presence. It has soul. And it carries the kind of artistic authority that’s made Heriz rugs beloved for generations.
Low pile and durable. Handwoven with vegetable dyed wool.
