77175 Antique Persian Heriz Rug, 11'05 x 19'00.

Enter a world where geometry meets grandeur with this magnificent antique Persian Heriz rug—a striking testament to the powerful design language of northwest Iran. Woven by master artisans in the late 19th century, this precious hand-knotted wool rug radiates nobility and strength, with every signature motif speaking of tribal heritage, sacred geometry, and enduring prestige. At its heart lies a commanding octofoil medallion that anchors the entire composition, its form blossoming with serrated leaves, stylized blossoms, and bold angularity. Framed by cartouche finials that radiate power and balance, this central figure unfolds like a mandala—both a focal point and a spiritual emblem, whispering of the harmony that emerges when beauty and structure intertwine.

The luminous ivory ground provides a striking contrast to the rich jewel tones that define this exclusive Heriz masterpiece. From this neutral canvas, a captivating array of jagged vine scrolls, palmettes, and rectilinear florals erupt in symmetrical order, creating a visual tension that is both wild and controlled. The surrounding crimson red spandrels frame the ivory field with architectural precision, forming a dramatic interplay of light and depth. Each motif, each line, is a dialogue between nature and abstraction—between the spontaneity of the wild and the discipline of the artisan’s hand. This is the soul of Heriz design: rugged, elemental, and yet unmistakably refined.

The exceptional border is no mere frame—it is a crown. The classic turtle vine scroll design runs the perimeter like a procession of royal guards, flanked by delicate carnation meander guard bands that soften the strength with poetic grace. These elements, deeply rooted in Persian symbolism, suggest guardianship, eternity, and fertility. The mastery lies not just in the clarity of pattern, but in the dynamic color palette—deep indigo, ruby, oxidized copper, and pistachio green—each drawn from the natural world and mellowed over generations. The result is a composition that feels both ancient and enduringly modern, capable of commanding space in a minimalist gallery or a stately salon.

To live with this exquisite work of art is to curate a legacy—one steeped in the values of artistry, heritage, and distinction. This is not just a rug; it is an extraordinary woven narrative of status, cultural memory, and artisan integrity. Rare in scale, timeless in design, and unrivaled in presence, it is ideal for those who seek to ground their interiors in authenticity while exalting in the richness of form and tradition. In a world that races toward the ephemeral, this one-of-a-kind treasure offers something far more luxurious: permanence, purpose, and a place in the unfolding story of timeless beauty.
