FAQs

Heriz carpets are hand-knotted oriental rugs produced in the Heris district of north-west Persia, known for their durable construction and bold geometric medallion designs.

These carpets traditionally feature sturdy wool pile hand-knotted onto a cotton foundation, utilising natural vegetable dyes for their distinctive colour palette.

Authentic pieces are identified by their heavy wool quality, characteristic geometric anchor medallions, stiff handle, and traditional asymmetrical knots on cotton warps.

An antique Heriz carpet anchors contemporary or traditional rooms by providing rich colour, textural contrast, and historic grounding underfoot.

Preservation involves regular gentle vacuuming without beater bars, professional hand-washing as needed, and using a quality rug underlay to prevent sliding and wear.
