About the Item

61522 Vintage Persian Heriz Rug Runner, 03'03 x 10'00. Infused with the poetry of East Azerbaijan’s tribal heritage, this hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Heriz runner embodies a level of rarity and refinement that immediately sets it apart. Its antique wash lends the palette a soft, pastel luminosity—muted rose, desert sand, and powdery blues—creating an ambiance more often associated with heirloom textiles carefully preserved in private collections. The dark blue field anchors the composition with understated gravitas, allowing the artistry of the medallions and motifs to unfold with regal clarity. At the heart of the piece, three commanding hexagonal medallions appear like ancient celestial diagrams—each outlined with serrated edges and filled with esoteric tribal symbols that speak to a lineage of spiritual storytelling. Their geometry is bold yet soulful, echoing the architectural power Heriz is celebrated for, but rendered here with an unusually delicate, almost atmospheric touch. Between these medallions, subtle abrash shifts across the field, adding a painterly fluidity that heightens the runner’s rare, curated elegance. The corner spandrels bloom with rosettes and enigmatic motifs, their soft hues dissolving into the field like memories preserved in woven form. Every detail feels intentional: a vocabulary of symbols passed down through generations, refined by the hands of master weavers who understood the cultural weight of every precious knot. These elements merge into a holistic design that balances tribal energy with aristocratic restraint, making this runner especially suited to interiors seeking worldliness without visual noise. The geometric border, framed by inner and outer running water guard bands, offers a final gesture of harmony—a protective enclosure that completes the composition with rhythmic continuity. In elite design circles, a Heriz runner of this sophistication is coveted not only for its aesthetic impact but for its narrative depth. It transforms hallways into curated galleries, infusing them with prestige, heritage, and a whisper of ancient cosmology. For collectors who appreciate the rare intersection of tribal authenticity and polished elegance, this exquisite work of art stands as an undeniable masterpiece. Abrash. Antique Wash.

Shir Far is renowned for his unparalleled craftsmanship, distinguished by high-quality materials, distinctive designs, and captivating color combinations.
