Here’s a Persian Heriz that breaks the mold — a bold departure from the classic medallion structure we often see from the NW Persian region. Woven with vegetable-dyed wool and boasting a large, powerful presence, this Heriz stands out with roaming floral sprays, floating forms, and a less rigid layout that brings an artful, organic quality to the piece. It has presence and it'll be the star of the room.
The color story leans into a vibrant terracotta red ground, punctuated by slate blue, blush, ivory, and soft dijon tones. Within the main field, dragon-like vines and bold angular blossoms stretch across the space, anchored by two stylized floral medallions. The layout feels kinetic — full of movement, drama, and confidence.
And then there's that border — packed with turtle motifs, symbols of longevity and protection in Persian weaving tradition. Their rhythmic spacing around the edge acts like a ceremonial frame for the wild energy in the center.
This is a room-size rug with power and presence — not shy, not quiet, and absolutely not basic. It has scattered wear, a low pile, and serious durability. This piece can handle high-traffic spaces while making a design statement that holds its own.
Low pile. All natural dyes. Weighted.
