About the Item

This antique Heriz rug, measuring 6'8" × 9'8", is a fine example of the iconic Northwest Persian weaving tradition. The design is anchored by a bold central medallion rendered in rich terracotta, flanked by geometric ivory spandrels and classic cobalt navy corners. The field contains layered botanical forms and angular floral motifs—symmetrical, yet never stiff. The saturated indigo border frames the composition with detailed palmettes and vinescrolls, giving structure and depth. This piece offers the perfect mix of rustic charm and graphic sophistication, making it ideal for both classic and contemporary interiors. A versatile size and timeless palette lend this rug broad appeal for entryways, studies, or under a coffee table in a refined living space.
