Vintage Heriz Handwoven Tribal Rug, J68444

The rug in question is a Persian high-quality textile. Its design is known as Heriz, which originated from the Heris village in North-West Iran. This recognized design is particularly known for its distinctive geometric patterns and vibrant colors that create a beautiful combination that marks these rugs. The Persian rug reveals itself as a tribal style, indicative of the influence of numerous cultures including the Turks, Armenians, and Kurds on Persian artistic practices.

The background color of the rug is a muted camel tone with the main color being a nondescript shade of beige. The subtle palette serves as a backdrop to the grandeur of the rug's central pattern, and helps to amplify the intricate designs and motifs. These vibrant colors are a result of the rug's contents - fine wool dyed with natural colored pigments.

This Persian rug was crafted during the 1920s, during a time of great advancement in the creation of hand-woven rugs. Over the centuries, these handmade creations have become synonymous with luxury and refinement in home decor. This piece measures approximately 7'4" x 9'9", a size that makes it an ideal choice for large living spaces.

The significant feature of the rug is its detailed design showing a marked mastery of techniques. The core of the rug houses an elegant concentration of botanical motifs and geometric structures. Surrounding the central field of the rug, there are a series of borders exhibiting different patterns which resonate with the core design of the rug.

In the outermost border, one can see different geometric shapes alternating with small floral figures. This scheme of patterns is meticulously repeated until it reaches the edges of the rug. The rug corners each boast a quarter-medallion designed to enhance the rug's overall aesthetic appeal.

Designed by expert weavers, Heriz rugs are renowned both for their beauty and exceptional durability. They are made using high-quality wool on a cotton foundation, which contributes to the dense pile and long-lasting quality. The wool used is known to come from the Heriz region where the cold climate allows for the production of a very fine wool, ideal for superior rugs.

The factor that dictates a rug's value such as its age, condition, size, and intricacy of design, all point to this rug being a coveted piece for collectors and everyday users alike. These rugs retain their beauty for generations and are well suited for both traditional and contemporary spaces.

The Heriz design has remained unchanged for centuries; geometric figures, potent colors, and an impressive medallion at the center remain the most recognizable features of these rugs. This meticulous incorporation of detail showcases not only the rug's stunning aesthetics but its cultural importance as well. As a living testament to centuries of cultural blending and artistic growth, this rug stands as a vibrant piece of living history.
