Red 7'11''x9'9'' Indo Heriz Traditional Medallion Plush Pile Hand Knotted Wool Oriental Area Rug

This 7'11" x 9'9" hand-knotted Indo Heriz wool rug features a high 0.75-inch plush pile, delivering a dense, velvety surface with substantial presence. Traditional in style, the design draws from classic Heriz architecture, where strong geometry and clarity define the composition. A bold, angular central medallion sits within a rich red field, built from stepped forms that radiate outward with confidence and symmetry. Surrounding motifs—stylized leaves, abstract florals, and tribal-inspired elements—appear in teal, sage, beige, gray, and muted blue, creating contrast while maintaining harmony. A deep navy border anchors the design with repeating geometric and botanical elements. The thick wool pile softens the bold lines, while the cotton foundation provides long-term structural integrity, making this rug ideal for living rooms, dining spaces, or formal interiors.

Story Behind the Art: Indo-Heriz rugs are sturdy, hand-knotted textiles from India that faithfully echo the powerful, architectural style of the Heriz region in northwestern Iran. Instantly recognizable, these rugs feature commanding, angular central medallions and strongly rectilinear layouts, where traditional floral curves are transformed into sharp, geometric forms. Woven with a thick, durable pile, Indo-Heriz rugs are built to withstand heavy foot traffic, reflecting the legendary toughness of their Persian counterparts. Contemporary Indian versions often employ a harmonious palette of terracotta red, deep indigo, and ivory. Collectors may recognize the term “Serapi,” used to describe the finest antique examples of this style, known for their more open compositions, refined proportions, and subtly muted color schemes.
