A Masterful Antique Heriz Rug with Enduring Presence
Hand-knotted approximately 150 years ago, this exceptional antique Heriz rug is a powerful expression of strength, clarity, and master craftsmanship. Heriz rugs are celebrated for their commanding geometry and architectural structure, and this piece embodies those qualities with remarkable confidence.
Bold yet harmonious, it is a true statement rug—rich in history, authenticity, and soul.
Design & Color Story
The composition is strong and grounded, featuring a classic Heriz design rendered with clarity and balance. A striking interplay of red, deep blue, light blue, and warm beige creates visual impact while remaining elegant and highly livable.
The saturated tones have softened beautifully over time, developing a nuanced patina that only genuine antiques can achieve. The contrast between the rich reds and layered blues adds depth and movement, while the warm beige elements provide structure and lightness within the composition.The result is a design that feels architectural and timeless—assertive without overwhelming.
