Antique Heriz Carpet

1900 - 1920
Description

An amazing large antique Heriz carpet, woven around 120 years ago and full of beautiful rich natural dyes we would expect from this fabulous weaving area in the north of Persia. We love Heriz when they have the four white corner spandrels, this always lifts the palette and allows the pale blues, greens and golden yellows to shine and enhance the composition of the carpet.  With large scale leaves and floral motifs, geometric in style, this Heriz carpet has been drawn with expertise and woven with skill from the best weavers around the turn of the 20th century.

It is getting increasingly rare to find antique Heriz carpets of this quality in such original condition.  The pile height is dense and the weave is very fine too, a tough and sturdy piece, ideal for a drawing room, dining room, study or entrance hall, supplied with our excellent underlay, this helps the carpet to stay flat on any floor type, enhancing its appearance too.

Request a home visit to view this stunning antique Heriz in the privacy of your own home. We travel all over the UK showing our carpets and rugs in-situ to help you make the right choice. A professional service we have offered for the last 30 years.

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

Originating from the Heriz region in northwestern Iran, these carpets are renowned for their geometric, angular medallion designs, durable construction, and rich vegetable-dyed wool hues.

Heriz carpets are hand-knotted using local wool pile hand-spun onto a durable cotton warp and weft foundation, frequently utilizing copper-rich water-treated wool for enhanced strength.

Authentic Heriz pieces display bold geometric central medallions, asymmetrical hand-knotted backing, natural dye colour variations known as abrash, and a dense, firm hand texture.

The architectural geometry and saturated palette of a Heriz carpet provide a grounding visual center beneath modern neutral seating or paired with traditional timber furniture.

Vacuum without a rotating beater bar, rotate periodically to ensure even wear, blot spills immediately with cold water, and utilise professional hand-cleaning specialists for deep washing.
