About the Item
This refined antique Persian Heriz rug features a dramatic oversized medallion rendered in soft steel blue and slate tones, set against a warm ivory field. The composition is framed by angular floral and architectural motifs characteristic of early Heriz weaving, combining bold geometry with a surprisingly fluid, lyrical quality.
Unlike the more saturated red-ground Heriz examples, this rug stands out for its restrained, airy palette, where pale blues, muted teals, sand, and stone tones interact harmoniously. The spacious field allows the central medallion to read clearly, while the surrounding spandrels and border maintain the strong structural presence for which Heriz rugs are renowned.
Woven with a robust hand and slightly larger-scale knotting typical of the region, this piece balances durability with elegance. Its softened color story makes it especially versatile—well suited for both traditional interiors and contemporary spaces seeking a grounded yet understated antique anchor.
A strong early 20th-century Heriz with excellent proportions, subtle coloration, and timeless architectural appeal.
