FAQs

Heriz rugs originate from the Heris region in Northwest Iran, renowned for hand-knotted wool construction and bold, geometric central medallions. Produced in villages surrounding Mount Sabalan, these textiles are distinguished by angular designs and durable weave techniques.

Traditional Heriz rugs feature hand-spun wool pile woven onto a durable cotton warp and weft foundation. The wool is dyed using natural vegetable and plant-based dyes, producing rich terracotta, indigo, ochre, and ivory tones.

Authentic Heriz rugs feature pronounced geometric motifs, stepped medallions, and angular corner spandrels rather than fluid curvilinear patterns. Examining the reverse reveals hand-knotted asymmetrical knots with slight irregularities characteristic of village handcraft.

Geometric Persian rugs anchor hardwood or stone flooring in living rooms, entryways, and study spaces, adding textural contrast. Combining these traditional patterns with neutral upholstery or dark wood furniture creates a balanced aesthetic.

Vacuum regularly without using a rotating beater bar to avoid pulling the wool pile fibres. Clean spills immediately with water and mild detergent, and rotate the carpet annually to balance foot traffic and light exposure.
