Rooted in the celebrated geometric traditions of Northwest Persia, this hand-knotted Heriz area rug pairs a premium wool cut pile with a durable cotton foundation for lasting, comfortable use. A bold central geometric medallion commands the field, surrounded by intricate tribal florals in a rich palette of rust, gold, soft blue, navy, beige, and subtle lime accents. The wool pile stays soft and plush underfoot, only improving with time, while the medallion and floral detailing give the rug true heirloom character. Equally at home in a living room, dining room, bedroom, or family room, this is the kind of showstopping traditional rug that instantly anchors a space and turns it into a warm, elevated sanctuary. Note: This rug was photographed under studio lighting, which means the colors on screen may appear a little more vibrant than they do in person. We'd recommend watching the video below for a truer sense of the palette.

Story Behind the Art: Heriz rugs come from the mountain villages surrounding Tabriz in northwestern Iran, an area with a long history of producing sturdy, boldly designed carpets. Woven from hardy local wool rich in natural lanolin, these rugs are built to withstand generations of daily use. Their most recognizable feature is a large, angular medallion, drawn with strong geometric lines and typically framed by stylized leaves and bold radiating motifs across the field. Classic Heriz color palettes lean toward deep reds, indigo, ivory, and earthy neutrals, giving the rugs a substantial, architectural quality. Admired for pairing lasting durability with striking visual presence, Heriz rugs remain one of the enduring hallmarks of traditional Persian village weaving.
