About the Item

79008 Vintage Persian Heriz Rug Runner, 03'04 x 10'08. This exquisite hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Heriz rug runner embodies the timeless artistry and craftsmanship of the Heriz region in northwest Iran. Known for their durability and distinct geometric designs, Heriz rugs are celebrated for their ability to blend traditional motifs with a bold, rustic aesthetic. This Heriz carpet runner showcases a masterful composition of medallions flanked with tree of life motifs on either side, with each motif meticulously woven to create a rhythmic and harmonious design that draws the eye along its length. The Persian rug's striking color palette of deep red, navy blue, and ivory evokes a sense of warmth and sophistication, making it an ideal piece for a hallway or entryway. At the heart of the design lies a sequence of intricate medallions, each anchored by stylized tree of life motifs and geometric accents that convey a sense of strength and resilience. These medallions, outlined in bold navy blue and ivory, are reminiscent of the protective symbols that are often woven into Persian rugs to ward off negative energy. The botanical details are inspired by the natural world, symbolizing immortality, while the geometric patterns embody stability and balance. Together, these elements create a captivating interplay of form and symbolism, reflecting the weaver's deep connection to both tradition and nature. The Persian rug's border adds another layer of complexity, framed by an intricate chain of stylized rosettes and vine-like scrolls that symbolize continuity and the interconnectedness of life. This meander border is flanked by an inner guard stripe, featuring smaller, angular motifs that represent protection and serve as a visual boundary for the central design. The border's rich hues of red, navy, and brown complement the field, creating a seamless flow of color that enhances the rug’s overall aesthetic. This framing not only reinforces the structural integrity of the Persian carpet runner but also emphasizes the central medallions, allowing them to stand out even more vividly. This vintage Heriz rug is more than just a decorative piece; it is a work of art imbued with cultural significance and historical charm. Its robust construction and timeless design make it a versatile addition to various interior styles, from traditional to contemporary settings. With its harmonious blend of colors, symbols, and geometric precision, this rug is not only a statement of elegance but also a tribute to the skilled artisans of Heriz, whose craftsmanship has been passed down through generations. As a collector’s item, it promises to add both beauty and character to any space, serving as a testament to the enduring legacy of Persian rug-making traditions. Abrash. Hand knotted wool.
