We love Heriz rugs ! And so will you ! Rustic,informal charm;semi-geometric designs;bold drawing;wide saturated tonal ranges;sizes from 4’x6’ to over 12’x15’,what is not to like? Heriz rugs are woven in an area of Persian Azerbaijan, NW Iran, in houses in the 30 or so villages dotting the district.For nearly 150 years they have held true to their traditions of striking and eye-catching carpets, primarily in angular medallion patterns.

Red, dark blue and ivory are the salient colours, but a good Heriz may have a dozen or more distinct tones. Antique Heriz carpets have all natural dyes and an essentially warm palette. Heriz rugs come in a variety of weave qualities, from coarse Goravans to fine Serapis. Although the majority of Herizes are in centralized patterns, all over designs are also available.

Not overly detailed or busy, Heriz carpets are not mechanical and perfect since the weavers do not work from detailed cartoons specifying each knot. Heriz rugs are copied in Iran, India and elsewhere, but most often these reproductions lack the informality and quirkiness of the originals.Our wide selection of Heriz carpets provides plenty of examples of this rustic charm.

Heriz carpets are fairly thick and heavy. These carpets are woven quickly,and this rapid execution often leads to attractive “errors” and ingenious pattern resolutions.Heriz prices are reasonable and selection is wide enough to suit the most demanding purchaser.Heriz carpets are bold and striking, and can easily dominate a room, yet have an enhancing quality for the other art and décor.Because of their geometric style, they partner wonderfully with colourful Caucasians and Turkish rugs.
