Heriz carpets originate from the Heris region in northwestern Iran, known for producing durable, distinctive village carpets featuring bold geometric designs and large central medallions.

Authentic pieces are hand-knotted using wool pile on a cotton foundation, often incorporating vegetable dyes derived from local plants and minerals for colouration.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the knot density, the natural abrash in the wool, the structure of the foundation, and the characteristic heavy geometric scaling typical of the region.

These carpets serve as strong foundational elements in modern spaces, grounding neutral furniture arrangements and adding warmth, texture, and historical contrast to minimalist rooms.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without beater bars, professional specialist cleaning, avoiding direct prolonged sunlight, and using a breathable rug underlay.
