Heriz carpets are hand-knotted wool rugs produced in the Heris region of northwest Persia. Known for their durability and bold, geometric medallion designs, these rugs typically date from the late 19th to the mid-20th century.

Authentic Heriz carpets are traditionally constructed with a sturdy cotton foundation and a thick, resilient wool pile. They often utilise heavy, durable Turkish (Ghiordes) knots, which contribute to their long-lasting structural integrity.

Authentic pieces are identified by their characteristic heavy handle, sturdy cotton warps, and distinctive large-scale geometric medallions often outlined in dark indigo or black. Vegetable dyes, natural colour variations (abrash), and hand-finished fringes also indicate authenticity.

An antique Heriz carpet serves as a strong focal point in modern spaces, grounding neutral furniture and adding warmth and texture. It pairs effectively with minimalist contemporary designs, leather seating, or traditional wood finishes.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without the beater bar, professional hand-washing by specialists in antique textiles, and avoiding direct, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight to protect the natural dyes.
