This early 20th century Persian Heriz runner rug originates from North West Persia and carries a Waring and Gillow label to the reverse. The hand-knotted wool pile on cotton foundations displays three central Lenkoran crab motifs across a navy blue and black field, surrounded by soft terracotta, apricot, salmon pink, and light pea green tones with angular botanical motifs. Visible details include minor fringes, intact side cords, and an even pile throughout. The rug measures 311 cm high by 96 cm wide by 1 cm deep. Placement in a hallway, corridor, or living area provides practical flooring protection and adds traditional pattern to an English Country House interior. Maintenance involves regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating brush head to protect the hand-knotted pile and fringes.

FAQs

Originating from the Heriz region in North-West Persia, these rugs are characterised by bold geometric medallions, angular patterns, and highly durable construction.

Heriz runners are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a durable cotton foundation, incorporating natural plant-based dyes for lasting colour saturation.

Authentic pieces feature distinct symmetrical knotting visible on the reverse, hand-bound edges, and characteristic stylized geometric patterns rather than smooth curvilinear lines.

Positioning a long runner in a neutral hallway or entryway introduces warmth, structural focus, and rich color contrast within contemporary or classic design schemes.

Vacuum regularly using suction only without a rotating brush, rotate periodically to balance traffic wear, and treat spills immediately with absorbent cloths and neutral water.
