Rooted in Indo Heriz tradition, this approximately 6×9 hand-knotted wool rug features a plush 0.75-inch pile on a cotton foundation, offering both visual impact and tactile comfort. The ivory and beige field creates a calm, open backdrop that allows the rug’s bold geometry to read clearly. Strong, stylized geometric motifs unfold across the surface in balanced symmetry, defined by deep green structural elements that anchor the design. Aqua and blue accents trace secondary forms, adding movement and cool contrast, while peach highlights soften the angularity of the composition. The border reinforces the Heriz aesthetic through repeated geometric motifs that frame the rug with structure and cohesion. With its plush texture and disciplined design, this rug works well in dining areas, living rooms, or studies seeking architectural presence and timeless craftsmanship.

Story Behind the Art: Heriz rugs originate from the Heris region of East Azerbaijan in northwestern Iran and are celebrated for their bold scale, architectural presence, and exceptional durability. Unlike many Persian rugs that rely on curvilinear drawing, Heriz designs are defined by strong angular forms and monumental floral medallions. While medallion layouts are most common, allover Heriz patterns are also produced, retaining the same emphasis on structure and geometry. Bright, saturated colors and high-contrast motifs make Heriz rugs immediately recognizable. Typically woven at a density of approximately 30 to 80 knots per square inch, these rugs may appear coarser than finely knotted Tabriz carpets, yet they are renowned for their rugged construction and long lifespan. This combination of visual strength and practical durability has secured Heriz rugs a lasting place in both traditional and modern interior design.
