Heris carpets originate from the Heris region in northwestern Iran, renowned for durable carpets featuring bold geometric designs and medallion motifs woven by skilled artisans.

Authentic pieces are hand-knotted using locally sourced sheeps wool for the pile and cotton for the foundation warp and weft, often dyed with natural vegetable colorants.

Authenticity is identified by examining the irregular hand-knotted fringe, natural wool pile variations, vegetable dye coloration, and characteristic geometric Heris medallion patterns on the reverse side.

Place the runner in high-traffic transition spaces such as hallways or entryways to ground neutral flooring with traditional pattern, rich texture, and historical contrast.

Preserve the pile by vacuuming gently without a rotating brush bar, using a breathable rug underlay, and arranging for professional hand-washing by specialists in antique textiles.
