Antique Heriz Carpet

19th century
Description

Stunning vibrant antique Heriz carpet with beautiful colours, remarkable intricate pattern with detailed leaves, blue medallion and soft off white, ivory corners.  Condition is excellent, a high wool pile and dating from circa 1890-1900.  When we purchased this carpet recently it was incredibly dirty, so it has been thoroughly cleaned by our workshop and now ready for the floor.

Please view the 16 additional images to see how lovely the colours and intricate pattern has been woven. Accomplished nomadic weavers have created a glorious carpet, woven 120 years ago and looking as good as the day it was cut from the loom.

It is getting increasingly rare to find antique Persian Heriz carpets of this high quality in such original condition.  Ideal for a drawing room, dining room, study or entrance hall, included in the price is our sturdy underlay, helping sit safely and flat on any floor type, enhancing its appearance too.

Request a home visit to view this stunning antique Heriz carpet in the privacy of your own home. We travel all over the UK showing our carpets and rugs in-situ, a professional service we have offered for the last 30 years.

Archival Detail
Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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 Northwest Iran, woven in villages surrounding the city of Heris. They feature bold geometric medallion designs, angular floral motifs, and hand-knotted wool construction on a cotton warp.

These carpets are constructed using hand-spun wool for the pile, knotted onto a durable cotton warp and weft foundation. Natural dyes produce the terracotta red, indigo blue, and ivory shades.

Authentic Heriz carpets feature thick wool pile with Turkish knots and a heavy, rigid handle. The patterns rely on stylised, rectilinear geometric interpretations of traditional curvilinear floral motifs.

A Heriz carpet provides visual grounding in both traditional and contemporary interiors. Position it in a living space or dining area beneath neutral furniture to allow the geometric medallion and contrasting palette to anchor the space.

Vacuum regularly without using a rotating brush bar to prevent pulling the wool pile. Clean spills immediately by blotting with an absorbent cloth, and arrange for professional hand-washing by a textile conservator periodically.
