Heriz rugs originate from the Heris region in the Azerbaijan province of northwest Iran, renowned for producing exceptionally durable carpets woven by skilled village artisans using distinct geometric motifs.

Authentic Heriz rugs are traditionally constructed with a sturdy cotton foundation and a dense, hand-knotted wool pile, often utilising vegetal dyes derived from local plants and minerals.

Authentication involves examining the hand-knotted fringe, the irregularities characteristic of village production, the use of traditional natural dyes, and the presence of a heavy, robust wool pile woven onto a cotton warp and weft.

An antique Heriz rug anchors a contemporary room by introducing rich colour and historical texture, working effectively as a statement piece beneath minimalist furniture or layered over neutral flooring.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without the beater bar, professional washing by a specialist in antique textiles, and keeping the rug out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
