About the Item
79317 Rare Antique Persian Heriz Rug, 02'06 x 02'09. In the highlands of Northwest Persia, where the looms of Heriz have long woven tales of strength and beauty, this antique Persian Heriz rug, from the Early 20th Century, stands as a rare jewel. Its smaller, intimate size makes it a unique departure from the grand Heriz carpets traditionally woven for great halls, suggesting it was commissioned with personal prestige in mind. Such bespoke scale imbues this one-of-a-kind piece with rarity, elevating it beyond a decorative object into a true collector’s treasure.
The exclusive composition centers on a commanding medallion, its serrated edges radiating like a starburst of authority, framed by floral palmettes and curling tendrils of vine. Woven in a signature palette of mellow madder red, indigo blue, ivory, and softened greens and pinks, the design exudes both vibrancy and refinement. Each hue is a testament to master dyers—madder root yielding deep reds symbolic of vitality, indigo blues evoking protection and wisdom, and ivory lending balance and purity. Together, they create a visual symphony, harmonizing strength with grace.
Encircling the exceptional field, a series of borders interlace in rhythmic dialogue, blending tribal vigor with courtly elegance. The confident geometry and botanical flourishes are not mere ornament, but an affirmation of continuity—each signature motif echoing ancient Persian symbols of prosperity, protection, and cosmic order. The small format intensifies this presence, as if the weaver condensed the spirit of a palace-sized Heriz into a jewel-like miniature, rich with both power and intimacy.
To acquire this exquisite work of art is to embrace more than heritage—it is to partake in status, legacy, and cultural stewardship. Owning a precious Heriz of this caliber is a mark of discernment, a signifier of one’s alignment with timeless artistry. Beyond its beauty, it carries the quiet dignity of preservation: supporting the continuation of weaving traditions and honoring the hands that shaped it a century ago. This is not merely a furnishing, but a work of living history—a talisman of prestige that will enrich the most discerning interiors for generations.
