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.

Heriz carpets originate from the Northwest region of Iran, near the city of Tabriz. Produced from the nineteenth century onwards, these floor coverings are distinguished by their bold, angular geometric interpretations of traditional floral Persian designs.

Heriz rugs are hand-knotted using durable wool pile constructed over a cotton warp and weft foundation. The local wool is notoriously tough due to copper trace elements in the regions water supply, and yarns are coloured using natural plant and mineral dyes.

Authentic antique Heriz carpets feature a strong central geometric medallion, angular corner spandrels, and a prominent palmette border. The weave displays small, natural variations on the reverse, accompanied by subtle colour variations, known as abrash, throughout the field.

A Heriz carpet serves as a grounding visual anchor in both classic and contemporary spaces. The vibrant terracotta and navy tones pair well with neutral upholstery, natural timber floors, and modern minimalist architectural features.

Vacuum regularly using suction only to avoid damaging the pile with a beater bar. Address spills immediately by blotting with a clean cloth, rotate the carpet periodically to ensure even wear, and rely on professional specialist cleaning when required.
