Heriz Iran Rug 315 X 248 Cm

Iranian wool rug, circa 1920. Used condition. Regular wear throughout this Hériz which remains, despite everything, a solid carpet. Restoration of breakpoints (on one side) in our workshop.

Located in Iranian Azerbaijan, east of Tabriz, Hériz is a town bringing together the production of neighboring villages such as Ahar, Goravan, Sérapi, Bakhshayesh... Hériz have the reputation of being solid carpets and very resistant to wear due to excellent quality wool (tied with the Turkbaff knot). Heriz rugs with geometric designs and a central medallion are inspired by a family tradition. At the end of the 19th century, traders from Tabriz had carpets woven in Hériz, bringing a more "refined" side. Despite this change, many weavers did not want to use cardboard and referred to traditional designs or "vaghirehs". At this time and until the start of the First World War, silk carpets were also made. They are now very rare and highly sought after.
This traditional heriz consists of a central geometric medallion in soft, weathered hues. Beautiful balance of colors and patterns.
