About the Item

73317 Antique Persian Karaja Heriz Rug, 02'10 x 03'10. A testament to the enduring prestige of Persian artistry, this hand-knotted wool antique Heriz rug embodies the very essence of tribal majesty and geometric sophistication. Handwoven in the rugged highlands of Northwest Persia, this piece tells a story of cultural heritage, craftsmanship, and spiritual symbolism that transcends time. At its core, three commanding medallions—anchored by a serrated lozenge and flanked by twin scarab-like forms—radiate with dynamic symmetry and ancient meaning. The medallion’s geometry, both deliberate and powerful, is a hallmark of Heriz weaving tradition—each angular contour representing not just form, but protection, strength, and lineage. The abrashed crimson field, softened by time into a patina of natural beauty, serves as the perfect canvas for its intricate symphony of iconic Persian motifs. Stylized leaves, rosettes, and tree of life elements weave across the surface in rhythmic dialogue, while angular lotus blossoms hint at transcendence and eternal renewal. Every precious knot is alive with intention—woven not for mere ornamentation, but as a coded language of prosperity and resilience. The abrashed texture, a byproduct of vegetal dyes and hand-spun wool, lends this masterwork an organic depth that modern reproductions could never replicate. Encasing this powerful composition is an angular botanical border, whose scrolling vines and rectilinear meanders create a sense of architectural precision—balancing the wild spontaneity of the field within a frame of quiet discipline. Flanked by inner and outer guard bands, this border structure reinforces the Heriz aesthetic of harmony through strength. The interplay of cerulean blue, sand, and ivory tones around the edges adds luminosity, accentuating the vivid contrast between bold form and delicate detail. For collectors and connoisseurs, this Heriz is more than a decorative treasure—it is an heirloom of distinction, a rare synthesis of tribal expression and Persian refinement. Its presence elevates any space with a sense of cultural gravitas and worldly sophistication. Whether displayed in a modern setting as a piece of living history or within a grand traditional interior, it embodies the legacy of a people whose artistry transformed wool and dye into woven poetry. This exquisite work of art is not simply a rug—it is an experience of heritage, passion, and timeless prestige. Abrash. Desirable Age Wear. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Persia (Iran).
