About the Item

79085 Vintage Persian Heriz Rug, 05'04 x 08'03. This exquisite hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Heriz rug is a striking example of traditional craftsmanship, showcasing the artistry and symbolic depth for which Heriz rugs are renowned. The Persian rug's bold design centers around a sophisticated medallion, intricately adorned with angular floral and foliage motifs. The medallion, a hallmark of Heriz rugs, is framed by angular, vine-like motifs that radiate outward, symbolizing the interconnectedness of life and nature. Its palette of lively red, deep navy blue, and golden ochre captures the rich natural dyes characteristic of Persian weaving. The field of this Heriz rug is adorned with a wealth of motifs, each imbued with profound meaning. Among the standout features are the stylized lotus blossoms, symbols of rebirth and immortality, and the peony-like flowers, signifying power and beauty. The rich red backdrop highlights these elements, while smaller motifs, such as rosettes and scrolling vines, contribute to the visual texture and depth of the composition. Together, these elements narrate a story of life, prosperity, and spiritual harmony. Enclosing the central field is a turtle vine scroll border, a distinctive feature that adds both structural harmony and symbolic weight. The turtle motif, often associated with protection and longevity, creates a rhythmic design that guides the viewer's gaze around the Heriz rug. This border is flanked by double inner and outer floral meander guard bands, which feature interlocking blossoms and leafy tendrils. These meanders evoke the continuous cycle of growth and regeneration, underscoring the life-affirming spirit embedded in Persian rug artistry. Ideal for both traditional and modern interiors, this vintage Persian Heriz rug is not only a decorative masterpiece but also a piece of living history. Its timeless design and symbolic motifs make it a meaningful addition to any collection, offering a connection to the heritage and artistry of Persian weaving. As a testament to its enduring quality, the rug’s craftsmanship and vibrant palette have withstood the test of time, ensuring it remains a cherished heirloom for generations to come. Abrash.
