While Heriz rugs are synonymous with geometric motifs, it’s worth noting the diversity within this category. Unlike some Heriz rugs featuring repeating all-over geometric patterns, our rug proudly features a central medallion, a design element commonly found in other Persian rug types. However, far from being a deviation, this adaptation speaks volumes about the artistic adaptability within the Heriz tradition, demonstrating its ability to incorporate influences from other weaving centers while preserving its unique Heriz essence.

Color plays a pivotal role in defining Heriz rugs, and this rug exemplifies this characteristic flawlessly. The bold red background, symbolizing power, passion, and prosperity in Persian culture, forms the rug’s foundation. Meanwhile, the central medallion and geometric borders intricately incorporate an array of colors, from vivid blues to soft creams and vibrant pops of green. This harmonious interplay of colors not only enhances the rug’s visual appeal but also adds depth and complexity to its overall design. See less
