This early 20th-century Persian Heriz rug is a masterful example of the iconic craftsmanship from the Heriz region in northwest Iran, renowned for producing some of the most durable and sought-after rugs in the world. Woven by skilled Azeri weavers, Heriz rugs are celebrated for their bold, geometric patterns and robust construction, making them both collectible and practical for everyday use. This stunning piece features a large central diamond medallion, richly stylized with floral motifs and scrolling vines, set against a field teeming with even more stylized blossoms. A wide border frames the composition, adorned with a pattern of floral and vine motifs that mirror the central design. The entire rug is crafted from vegetable-dyed wool in traditional Heriz colors—deep crimson, indigo, brown, white, and soft pink—creating a harmonious yet striking palette. The rug’s timeless aesthetic and durable nature make it a coveted piece for collectors and interior enthusiasts alike.
