About the Item

An exceptional and rare-size antique Heriz rug from Northwest Persia, woven in the early 20th century. This monumental piece showcases a striking central medallion with bold geometric motifs, surrounded by a rich field of stylized palmettes, angular vines, and tribal ornamentation. The palette is dominated by deep rust red and terracotta, with accents of indigo blue, ivory, and sky blue adding depth and vibrancy. The wide border frames the design with intricate repeating rosettes and geometric guard stripes, balancing the power of the central field. Heriz carpets are celebrated for their durability, high-quality wool, and distinctive graphic style, making them highly sought after for both decorative and functional use. This oversized example is especially rare and ideal for grand rooms or gallery spaces. Rug Size: 9'6" × 17'9"
