Woven in the spirit of the great Persian village tradition, this hand-knotted Heriz rug embodies strength, clarity, and enduring design. At its heart is a commanding geometric medallion—angular and architectonic—anchoring the composition with balance and confidence. Flanked by sharp-edged floral motifs and framed by serrated leaf forms, the design radiates outward in rhythmic harmony.
Unlike the fluid curves of urban Persian carpets, Heriz designs are known for their bold lines and tribal energy, a reflection of the rugged mountain weavers of Northwest Iran. The palette in this piece is rich and grounded: rust reds, indigo blues, ivory, and softened earth tones—each color derived from natural vegetable dyes and matured through time.
Woven with high-twist handspun wool on a durable cotton foundation, this rug is built to last generations—both structurally and stylistically. Whether placed in a contemporary interior or a traditional setting, ART00552 brings a graphic elegance and historical gravitas to any room.
