Antique Long Navy Blue Gold Brown Northwest Persian Runner Rug c. 1880-1900

About the Item

“Northwest” refers to a diverse group of antique Persian rugs in myriad weaving villages and encampments that during the 19th century occupied an expansive wilderness area west of Tehran, north of Bijar, and south of Tabriz. These villages borrowed patterns and weaving styles from a scope of different areas and influences, combing them into something unmistakably unique. Many smaller rug weaving villages, too numerous to name, also contribute to the broad treasure trove of carpets from this area. All of these largely unknown villages and encampments share certain commonalities in the design, construction, and dying of their weavings. They were typically woven on a cotton warp and weft in contrast to the primarily wool foundation used by the Caucasian tribespeople across the Areas River to the North. This is a lovely antique navy blue and brown Northwest Persian runner hand knotted in Iran in the 1880s-1900s and measures 4 x 17.5 ft.

  • Antique Navy Geometric Persian Heriz Long & Narrow Runner Rug 2.9 x 18.4 ft.
    Located in New York, NY
    Heriz rugs are one of the most famous rugs from Iran, because of their very unique and distinguishable style. Heriz is a city located in northwestern Iran, near the city of Tabriz, which is a major rug-weaving center in Iran. Most often, Heriz rugs have oversized geometric medallions, that are crisply delineated against a rich red, rust or dark blue field. The pattern is almost always geometric, although some Heriz rugs have an all-over layout often together with geometric floral motives and less frequently curvilinear floral motives. Since the Heriz region is not too far from the Caucasus, many Heriz carpets have similar colors and drawings to Caucasian rugs. The most common colors are brownish red, light and dark pink, light and dark blue, greens, yellows and ivory. Blue and ivory are normally added to increase contrast. This is a lovely rare narrow antique brown and navy Heriz...
