About the Item

This is a medallion design with the pear tree, flowers, and palmettes rug from the late 19th century, Heriz region, Northwest Persia area. Heriz ( Heris ) is a special Turkish knot weaving area of Persia, including many villages, located east of Tabriz in northwest Persia. Weaving has been carried on in the Heriz area certainly since the beginning of the nineteenth century and possibly before that date, named also Georovan, Mehriban, and Bakshaish. The Heriz area may be conveniently divided into three parts; the Karaja district, the Heriz area proper, and the Sarab district. The Heriz design repertoire is that of Classical Iran, featuring Lotus Palmettes, Medallions, Sickle leaves, Lattice, and Shrub tree ornaments. Few examples have survived from earlier periods, but a number of carpets with Sickle-Leaf and Palmette spring to mind, basically a synthesis of Isfahan and Vase carpet elements. Heriz weavers used straight lines, Tabriz's patterns are always curvilinear, yet the same design of the carpet which is woven from it is always in straight lines in Heriz. This propensity of the weavers of the area to break up curves into straight lines may be seen in operation any day in any of Heriz’s villages. The Tabriz merchants at that time knew that West was demanding carpet sizes in medallion designs, there was mass production in that area using synthetic alizarine dyes. At that time, Western customers liked the straight-line Heriz designs and as Ararat Rugs, we also liked the straight lines and reinterpreted the Heriz design by using all-natural wool and vegetable dyes at our time. The design of this rug is interpreted with a series of borders and vivid colors are chosen by our designers for this rug.

Ararat Rugs Garrus Bidjar Medallion Carpet 19th Century Revival Rug Natural Dyed
By Ararat Rugs
Located in Tokyo, JP
This is a central medallion carpet designed 19th century in Garrus ( Gerous or Garus ) region, Eastern Kurdistan area. Garrus is located in the foothills approaching the flatlands of Persia, Garrus has been a significant Kurdish city since antiquity when it was the capital of Media Minor. Important writers, scientists, and politicians from Garrus contributed to the Safavid dynasty, and it was a major commercial center. Garrus was more populous than Senna in the nineteenth century. As it was in the west of Persia, it was fortunate to escape the ravages of the Afghans and to a certain extent the economic incompetence of Nadir Shah. In the eighteenth century, it benefited from the lack of a centralized Persian government bent on collecting high taxes, and from the benign, decentralized rule of the Zands. The brilliant weaving school of Garrus, like that of Senna, did not develop in a vacuum in a process of deus ex machina...
