This small 1930s Persian Gharajeh rug packs everything these weavings are known for into a compact footprint…strength, bold design, and a whole lot of confidence. Handwoven with vegetable dyed wool, it has that unmistakable Heriz construction…firm, weighty, and built to handle real life.
The design is graphic and grounded, with strong geometric motifs that feel architectural and intentional. A warm brick red field anchors the rug, layered with deep navy, soft ivory, muted aqua blues, and earthy accents that have mellowed beautifully with age. The borders are bold and rhythmic, framing the center with classic Heriz energy without feeling fussy.
Gharajeh rugs come from northwest Persia, where weavers were known for using dense mountain wool and sturdy knotting techniques. These rugs were made to withstand heavy use, temperature swings, and generations of foot traffic…and it shows. This one feels solid underfoot, lays flat, and has that reassuring presence that makes it such a favorite for high traffic homes.
This is a rug you don’t tiptoe around. You live on it. And you'll enjoy it, at every glance.
Strong, timeless, and endlessly usable.
A small Heriz that punches way above its size.
Handwoven with vegetable dyed wool. Low pile and in good condition for its age.
