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.
