Heriz Rugs | beautiful Persian rugs with medallion

Heriz

Heriz rugs (also known as Heris) are made in the Bagschaich region, which is located in the north-west of Iran and surrounds the city of Heriz. Handmade oriental carpets with a coarse weave and distinctive design have been produced here since the beginning of the 19th century. Heriz are extremely durable and are ideal as a long-lasting rug for heavily frequented living areas.

Heriz rugs - robust natural wool meets traditional craftsmanship

The rustic Heriz rugs come from one of the most famous knotting centres in the Orient. The term covers oriental rugs from the city of Heriz as well as examples from the various provenances of the greater region - such as Ardebil, Gholtogh and Gharadjeh. What they all have in common is the use of thick, two-ply virgin wool from sheep, which is naturally hard-wearing. For the production of oriental carpets, the master weavers use a technique that has been handed down for centuries. With a knot density of between 80,000 and 160,000, the Heriz is one of the coarser Persian carpets. It is characterised by the geometric shape of the stylistic elements, which can be found in the typical Heriz carpet pattern. It consists of symmetrically arranged medallions with edged corner sections. The basic tone of the Heriz Oriental rug is often kept in restrained red tones, while the details are worked in strong dark blue, radiant white or elegant beige.

A Heriz oriental carpet as a resilient living element for the dining room and hallway

Would you like a rug that will last for many decades? Thanks to its solid structure, a genuine Heriz will outlast several generations. The range of models that were knotted by skilled hands several decades ago is correspondingly extensive. By definition, a Heriz rug is old if it can look back on a history of 50 to 80 years. If a model in our range is labelled "antique Heriz rug", this indicates an age of 80 years or more. They have retained their beauty and colourful splendour over the decades - an impressive testimony to the above-average longevity of Heriz carpets. Their abrasion-resistant surface withstands heavy, regular use and makes them the perfect underlay for large dining table groups. As a runner in the hallway, the Heriz rug impresses with its pattern, which welcomes you and your guests in style with a modern interpretation of oriental motifs.
