The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Heriz carpets originate from the Heriz region in northwestern Iran, renowned for their durable wool construction, bold geometric patterns, and rich natural dye palettes.

These carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile on a strong cotton foundation, crafted with symmetrical knotting to withstand heavy foot traffic.

Authentic Heriz carpets feature distinct angular geometric designs, bold repeating field motifs, thick wool pile, and subtle natural colour variations known as abrash.

A Heriz carpet grounds living rooms, dining spaces, or studies by anchoring minimalist or classic furniture with structured geometric lines and rich contrast.

Vacuum regularly without a rotating beater bar, rotate annually to balance wear, and clean spills immediately with mild damp cloths or via professional rug specialists.
