About the Item

This refined antique Persian Heriz rug presents a classic geometric medallion composition rendered in an unusually soft and atmospheric palette. The central stepped medallion and angular corner spandrels are drawn with the bold architectural clarity typical of Heriz weaving, yet here they are softened by washed tones of pale celadon blue, warm sand, ivory, and light taupe. The wide border is adorned with traditional stylized floral and geometric motifs, offering balance and structure without overpowering the field. Subtle abrash and gentle color transitions throughout the rug reflect the use of naturally dyed wool and decades of graceful aging. Unlike the more saturated, high-contrast Heriz carpets often associated with the region, this example stands out for its quiet elegance and versatility, making it especially appealing for contemporary interiors seeking historic character without visual heaviness. A beautifully proportioned early 20th-century Heriz that combines strength of design with a softened, timeworn palette, well suited for living rooms, dining spaces, or large bedrooms. Rug Size: 8'9" × 11'4"
