Heriz rugs originate from the Heris region in north-west Persia and are renowned for their durable construction, geometric motifs, and bold central medallions, heavily influenced by traditional village weaving techniques.

Authentic antique Heriz carpets are typically hand-knotted with a thick wool pile on a cotton foundation, utilising vegetable dyes such as madder root for their characteristic rich reds and indigos.

Authentication involves examining the hand-knotted fringe, irregularities in the weave indicating human craftsmanship, natural abrash colour variations in the wool, and the use of traditional symmetrical Turkish knots.

An antique Heriz rug adds warmth and texture to contemporary spaces, serving as a striking focal point when paired with minimalist furniture, neutral flooring, and clean architectural lines.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without the beater bar, professional specialist washing when necessary, rotation to ensure even wear, and protection from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
