About the Item

78955 Vintage Persian Karaja Heriz Rug Runner, 03'02 x 10'02. This hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Karaja Heriz runner exudes timeless elegance with its sophisticated interplay of geometric motifs and vibrant hues. Originating from the village of Karaja, located near the Heriz region in northwest Iran, this piece showcases the unique design characteristics synonymous with the area. Unlike traditional Heriz rugs, Karaja runners feature smaller medallions, skillfully layered along a linear axis, giving a distinctive rhythmic flow that is visually captivating. This particular runner is adorned with a series of octagonal medallions and latch hook medallions, each one meticulously hand-knotted to create a dynamic, yet balanced composition. The striking palette of brick red, azure blue, beige, and deep teal imbues the Persian carpet runner with a sense of warmth and richness, making it a perfect statement piece for a hallway or a grand entrance. The main field is dominated by a succession of latch hook medallions, interspersed with smaller cruciform patterns and stepped polygons, symbolizing strength and resilience. These repeating elements draw the viewer's eye down the length of the runner, enhancing the visual journey and emphasizing the Persian rug's elongated form. The latch hook medallions are accented with ivory highlights, which serve to anchor the composition and create a sense of symmetry. The vivid blue borders, filled with stylized rosettes, angular vine scrolls, and serrated leaves, frame the main field with a sense of protection and continuity. Each motif within the border carries its own symbolic weight: rosettes represent immortality and beauty, while the angular vine scrolls echo the idea of growth and eternal life. This elaborate border design, flanked by an outer carnation meander guard border, adds an additional layer of intricacy to the rug, showcasing the weaver’s skill and attention to detail. The interplay of colors between the borders and the field creates a visually balanced and harmonious effect, allowing the rug’s complexity to shine through without overwhelming the senses. As a quintessential example of Karaja Heriz artistry, this Persian rug runner is not only a functional piece but a work of art steeped in cultural history. With its robust construction and timeless aesthetic, this Karaja rug would seamlessly blend into a variety of interior design styles, from rustic and Midcentury Modern to eclectic and contemporary. Its vibrant colors and symbolic motifs would make it a standout piece in any collection, serving as both a practical addition and a cherished heirloom to be passed down through generations. Abrash.
