Antique Heriz Persian Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1930s. This exceptional example of a Heriz weaving showcases the robust structure and bold design vocabulary for which the region is renowned. As one of the finest examples among our collection of antique rugs, this piece embodies the enduring craftsmanship of early 20th-century Persian production.
The field is dominated by a rich, deeply saturated indigo, a hallmark of traditional Persian dyeing techniques, providing a dramatic backdrop for the complex patterning. The commanding presence of this deep hue places it among our most distinguished blue color rugs, offset beautifully by accents of terracotta, saffron yellow, and soft sky blue found within the stylized palmettes.
Characteristic of the Heriz style, the design utilizes highly geometricized floral elements arranged in a dense, repeating formation. While many Heriz rugs feature a strong central medallion, this particular composition employs a sophisticated, near-symmetrical allover rugs pattern, ensuring visual interest is distributed evenly across the entire surface.
Retaining remarkable clarity of color and excellent pile condition for its age, this hand-knotted treasure is perfectly scaled for modern interiors. Its generous proportions qualify it as one of our essential room size rugs, offering both historical depth and unparalleled durability for a main living space or formal dining area.
