Heriz Iran Rug 280 X 190 Cm

Iranian wool rug, cotton warp and weft, circa 1950. Very good condition. Strong and durable rug.

Located in Iranian Azerbaijan, east of Tabriz, Heriz is a city that brings together the production of neighboring villages such as Ahar, Goravan, Serapi, Bakhshayesh ... Heriz rugs have a reputation for being strong and very wear-resistant rugs due to their excellent quality wool (knotted with the turkbaff knot).

This Heriz rug in 'main farsh' format and with a traditional pattern consists of a large geometric central medallion in patinated shades. Beautiful balance of colors and patterns. Thick and comfortable rug.

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 rugs woven in Heriz, bringing a more "refined" side. Despite this change, many weavers did not want to use cardboard and referred to traditional designs or "vaghirehs". At that time and until the beginning of the First World War, silk carpets were also made. They are now very rare and highly sought after.
