Impressive Antique Heriz Carpet – Striking Medallion & Rich Colour Balance

This impressive antique Heriz carpet from Northwest Iran is a superb example of village weaving at its finest. Heriz carpets are celebrated for their bold geometric medallions, robust construction, and vibrant colour palettes, and this large-format piece exemplifies those traits beautifully.

At the heart of the design lies a striking central medallion, set against a warm terracotta field and framed by elegant aqua blue spandrels. A rich blue geometric border encloses the composition, lending structure and visual depth. Small accents of green, pink, and olive punctuate the design, creating a harmonious colour balance that enhances the carpet’s decorative appeal.

Larger Heriz carpets are increasingly rare and highly sought after, especially those in such well-preserved condition. This piece includes areas of expert repiling, which have been sympathetically done to maintain the integrity and charm of the original weave.

Whether placed in a grand hallway, dining room, or formal living space, this exceptional antique Heriz will command attention and add timeless elegance to your home.
