Heriz carpets originate from the Heris region in northwest Iran and are known for their durable construction, bold geometric medallions, and architectural motifs, heavily influenced by local village weavers adapting classical workshop designs.

Authentic pieces are traditionally hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation threads (warp and weft), often incorporating sturdy cotton foundations in later 19th and 20th-century examples, dyed with natural vegetable colorants.

Authentication involves examining the density and irregularity of the hand-knotting on the reverse, the presence of natural abrash (tonal variations in the wool), characteristic geometric corner spandrels, and heavy, robust wool quality.

An antique Heriz carpet anchors contemporary or traditional spaces by introducing rich terracotta and navy hues, serving as a textural focal point beneath minimalist contemporary furniture or classic dark wood furnishings.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without beater bars, professional hand-washing by textile conservators, avoiding direct prolonged sunlight to prevent fading, and using high-quality breathable rug underlays.
