Antique Handmade Persian Heriz Carpet – 407 × 300 cm (13 ft 4 in × 9 ft 10 in)
Authentic Persian Craftsmanship • Traditional Central Medallion • Natural Dyes • Fine Lamb’s Wool
This magnificent antique handmade Persian Heriz carpet is an outstanding example of the bold geometric artistry for which Heriz rugs are celebrated. Woven in north-west Persia (Iran), the carpet features a beautifully proportioned large central medallion surrounded by angular floral motifs and powerful geometric forms, creating a timeless design with exceptional visual impact.
Measuring 407 × 300 cm (approximately 13 ft 4 in × 9 ft 10 in), this impressive room-sized carpet is ideal for a large living room, dining room, library or reception room.
The carpet displays a rich madder red field complemented by a classic dark indigo border, enhanced with accents of soft ivory, sky blue, olive green and warm terracotta. These naturally dyed colours have mellowed beautifully over time, giving the carpet tremendous warmth and character.
Hand knotted from very fine lamb’s wool using traditional natural dyes, this substantial Heriz carpet combines exceptional durability with a soft, luxurious handle. Built to withstand generations of use, it is perfectly suited for heavy domestic use.
A true furnishing-quality Persian carpet, this is an investment piece that will become the centrepiece of any interior.
