Where were these rugs made?

These pieces originate from the Heriz region in Northwest Persia. Weavers in this area produced durable carpets for both local use and export. The workshop traditions span the late nineteenth century and early decades of the twentieth century. Each piece reflects the distinct aesthetic of the Northwest Persian weaving districts.

How do I clean a wool carpet?

Regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating brush helps remove surface dust from the wool pile. Professional antique textile cleaning is recommended for deeper maintenance. Harsh chemical treatments and excessive water should be avoided to protect the cotton foundation and natural dyes. Prompt attention to spills prevents permanent staining.

How do I tell Heriz and Serapi apart?

Serapi carpets generally exhibit a slightly more open geometric layout with softer, more muted secondary colours. They frequently date to the nineteenth century before commercial production expanded. Heriz pieces from later decades often display bolder, tighter geometric drawing and a slightly denser overall pattern. Both types utilise wool pile on cotton foundations.

Can I use a runner in a hallway?

Long narrow formats are specifically designed for hallways, staircases, and narrow corridors. The listings include runner lengths exceeding four metres to suit extended spaces. A quality underlay helps keep the runner stable on hard flooring and reduces wear on the wool pile over time.
