Antique Heriz Carpet

19th century
For Sale by Farnham Antique Carpets (Reserved for a buyer)
Description

A wonderful early antique Heriz carpet woven around circa 1880 with the best early green dyes and and pale blue natural colours.  The pale blue, green tone corners are faded and a palette of warm terracotta brick tones and deep blue almost black border.  In exceptional condition with a medium wool pile height all over, these carpets are known for being incredibly tough.  One of the best designs and well spaced out drawing, the border motif is exquisite, large leaves and golden flowers.  The central medallion is beautiful too, one of the best we have had.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Heriz carpets originate from the Northwest region of Iran, renowned for their bold geometric patterns and large central medallion designs woven since the nineteenth century.

These carpets are hand-knotted using durable wool pile constructed over a sturdy cotton warp and weft foundation, frequently dyed with natural plant extracts.

Authentic antique examples feature geometric rectilinear floral motifs rather than curved lines, heavy knotting, durable wool pile, and a colour palette dominated by rust red, navy blue, and soft light blue hues.

Position the carpet as a foundational anchor in a room, pairing its geometric central medallion with neutral contemporary upholstery or traditional dark wood furniture.

Vacuum regularly without a rotating beater bar, rotate periodically to ensure even wear, and seek professional specialist cleaning for spot removal or conservation.
