FAQs

Originating from Northwest Iran, Heriz carpets are renowned for their bold geometric patterns, large central medallions, and resilient double-knotted construction.

These carpets are hand-knotted using local wool yarn on a durable cotton warp and weft, often coloured with vegetable dyes.

Authentic 1920s pieces feature stylized angular motifs rather than curvilinear forms, heavy handle, natural dye abrash variations, and a dark indigo or rust palette.

The geometric composition and rich colours allow a Heriz carpet to act as an anchoring element in both classic schemes and contemporary spaces.

Vacuum without a rotating brush bar, clean spills immediately with mild soapy water, rotate periodically to balance light exposure, and arrange professional wash cleaning when required.
