About the Item

76226 Vintage Persian Heriz Rug, 06'04 x 09'08. Steeped in tradition and woven with an artistic flair, this hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Heriz rug embodies the bold spirit of northwestern Iran’s most celebrated weaving heritage. Its intricate design unfolds like an ancient manuscript, rich with symbolism and deeply rooted in cultural storytelling. At its heart, a grand medallion takes center stage, its floral-inspired geometry radiating outward in a striking interplay of symmetry and contrast. The medallion’s serrated edges and ornate embellishments evoke the timeless artistry of Persian artisans, whose hands have carried forth a weaving tradition spanning centuries. Encircling this majestic focal point, the field is a mesmerizing labyrinth of scrolling vines, arabesques, and rectilinear floral motifs that appear to dance across the surface. Their rhythmic repetition lends a dynamic energy to the composition, transforming this textile into a living tableau of movement and form. Warm, earthy hues of deep red and rust mingle with muted sage and ivory, creating a palette that exudes both richness and refinement. These botanical elements—each carrying its own symbolic meaning—speak to themes of abundance, fertility, and protection, making this rug more than just an ornamental piece but a cherished heirloom imbued with cultural significance. The ivory corner spandrels introduce a striking counterbalance, their intricate curvilinear designs echoing the elaborate tracery found in Persian manuscript illumination. Within these ivory-hued alcoves, delicate blossoms and vine scrolls intertwine, weaving a secondary narrative of nature’s eternal renewal. Their luminous contrast against the deep-hued field enhances the Heriz rug’s depth and complexity, offering a visual harmony that soothes as much as it captivates. A classic Herati border frames the entire composition, its meandering tendrils and stylized rosettes encapsulating the artistry of Persian weavers. Flanked by delicate inner and outer guard bands, this robust border serves as both a protective and ornamental element, reinforcing the structural integrity of the design while adding a final touch of opulence. With its masterful craftsmanship, storied motifs, and harmonious blend of colors, this Persian Heriz rug is more than a decorative element—it is a portal into the past, a celebration of Persian artistry, and a timeless statement of elegance. Rendered in variegated shades of ruby red, scarlet red, brick red, rust, peach, salmon, rose, coffee, charcoal, taupe, cerulean, bluish-steel, glaucous, hunter green, olive, dark gray, camel, and beige with other accent colors. Abrash. Age Wear. Hand knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 06'04 x 09'08. Date: 1960's. Mid-20th Century.
