FAQs

Heriz carpets originate from the Heris region in northwestern Iran, near Mount Sabalan. Woven predominantly in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these carpets are celebrated for their bold geometric interpretations of classic Persian floral motifs, created by weavers using local traditions rather than strict drawn cartoons.

Traditional Heriz rugs are hand-knotted using durable wool pile constructed over a cotton warp and weft foundation. The local wool is known for high lanolin content due to the water in the region, producing resilient yarns coloured with vegetable dyes such as madder and indigo.

Authentic Heriz carpets feature a distinguished geometric central medallion, stepped corner spandrels, and angular rectilinear leaf patterns rather than fluid curves. They showcase a heavy wool construction, symmetrical knots, and subtle colour variations known as abrash resulting from natural dye batches.

An antique Heriz carpet functions as a visual anchor in a room, complementing neutral modern upholstery or traditional wooden furnishings. Placing the rug centrally beneath a seating area or dining setup balances geometric architectural lines with rich warmth and texture.

Vacuum the carpet regularly without a rotating beater bar to avoid pulling fibres, and rotate it annually to ensure balanced wear and sun exposure. Spills should be blotted immediately with a clean, dry cloth, and thorough cleaning should be performed exclusively by specialist antique textile restorers.
