Karadja rugs are traditional hand-knotted oriental carpets originating from the mountainous region near Heriz in northwest Persia, known for their distinct geometric medallions and robust village craftsmanship.

Authentic pieces typically feature hand-spun wool pile woven onto cotton foundations, utilising natural vegetable dyes such as madder root and indigo to achieve deep, lasting colours.

Key indicators include asymmetric Persian knots, dense wool construction, characteristic geometric medallion motifs, natural dye variations known as abrage, and wool-warped or cotton-foundated fringes consistent with 19th and early 20th-century village production.

These rugs ground modern spaces by introducing rich textures and heritage patterns, working effectively against hardwood flooring or layered over neutral jute carpets to anchor living rooms or studies.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without beater bars, prompt professional hand-washing using specialist wool-safe solutions, and rotation every six months to ensure even wear.
