This antique Persian Heriz carpet runner from the Gorevan district dates to 1910 and measures 277 cm high by 96 cm wide. Hand-knotted from wool and cotton, the textile displays a rich terracotta red field alongside navy blue, green, soft pink, and pale gold tones. The design incorporates geometric medallions, stepped diamonds, hooked latch-hook patterns, and narrow geometric guard borders running along the outer edges. The full pile remains intact across the surface, showing subtle variations in shading across the central medallions and border sections. Suitable for placement along hallways, corridors, or long passage spaces within an English Country House interior scheme, the runner provides decorative floor coverage and underfoot warmth. The dense weave creates a durable foundation capable of withstanding regular domestic traffic. The traditional patterns and deep palette coordinate effectively with both period furniture and classic interior furnishings, serving as a functional floor covering that brings traditional North West Persian craftsmanship into the home.

Gorevan runners are hand-knotted Persian textiles produced in the Heriz region of Northwest Iran, recognised for their bold geometric motifs, durable weave, and saturated colour palettes.

These runners are crafted with a hand-spun wool pile knotted onto a cotton or wool foundation, coloured using traditional natural vegetable dyes.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-knotted asymmetric weave structures, distinctive geometric medallions, natural colour variations from organic dyes, and visible hand-bound selvedges.

Place the runner in long hallways, entryways, or kitchen aisles to provide linear emphasis, geometric pattern, and visual contrast against timber or stone flooring.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating brush, rotate periodically to balance foot traffic, and use a dedicated underlay to prevent slippage and fibre wear.
