This striking hand-knotted rug seamlessly blends the bold structural language of Heriz design with the refined softness of Oushak craftsmanship, showcasing a commanding medallion composition set against a rich, saturated blue field that immediately draws the eye. Woven from high-quality wool on a sturdy cotton foundation, the design centers on an ornate ivory medallion filled with crisp geometric detailing, flanked by aqua-toned corner spandrels that establish symmetry and visual balance throughout the rug. The angular motifs reflect traditional Persian Heriz influences, while the gentler transitions and spacing introduce the relaxed elegance associated with Oushak weaving. A generous ivory border frames the composition, decorated with flowing vines and geometric accents in coordinating tones that add depth and classical refinement. The palette harmoniously combines deep blues with subtle accents of rust, gold, and green, creating a handmade wool area rug that feels both stately and adaptable, well suited for anchoring sophisticated living rooms, dining areas, or formal interiors.

Story Behind the Art: Heriz rugs are masterpieces of bold design and enduring craftsmanship, originating from the rugged mountainous region of northwestern Iran near Tabriz. Woven from robust local wool rich in natural lanolin, these rugs are prized for their exceptional durability, making them ideal heirloom pieces capable of withstanding generations of use. Their signature aesthetic centers on a commanding angular medallion—geometric, bold, and architecturally structured—framed by stylized leaves and repeating motifs that radiate across the field with confident precision. The color story is striking yet grounded, combining deep reds, rich indigos, ivory, and earthy tones to create a dramatic, architectural presence. Each Heriz rug embodies the balance of strength and artistry, serving not only as a practical floor covering but also as a statement piece that conveys the timeless skill of Persian village weaving and the enduring allure of bold, visually commanding design.
