Heriz Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 323 × 448 cm, Wool

Overview

This Heriz comes from Iran and measures 323 × 448 cm. The covered area is about 14.47 m² (10.6' × 14.7'). Heriz rugs usually carry a bold, angular central medallion.

What it is made of

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 12-15mm.

Where it fits

The rug is rectangular. A format for large rooms, with space for an entire seating arrangement.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is under 200,000 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

On the colourway

Colour is recorded as red and orange. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
