Description
This antique Heriz rug has the most sublime natural colours! Woven around 140 years ago the pale blues are faded and exquisite, the gentle reds and gold tones are fabulous too. The drawing and symmetry is lovely and the border design is a classical turtle pattern. A rare ancient antique rug with some much beauty! The four ivory corner spandrels are really beautiful with amazing greens and blues, they sit wonderfully in proportion with central medallion.
The border design is often known as the so-called “turtle” pattern, which has probably been derived from the interlacing arabesques that appeared in rugs at least as early as the beginning of the 15th Century. The rosette and attendant leaves between adjacent “turtles” show the other ancient ‘Herati’ pattern. Which has been stylised from two fish swimming around a water-lily over the centuries.
A wonderful antique rug, full of character and depth of colour. Purchased from a private collector, used on the floor for many many years but very much loved and looked after. It is ready to be used again for another 100 years. The wool pile is medium high and there has been restoration to both fringes at either end, done incredibly well by professional restorers.

Heriz carpets and rugs are famous for their durability and are one of the toughest antique rugs due to the good quality wool that was used. They are still extremely popular today, and can be used in an traditional home with exposed beams for example as well as a more modern home with contemporary furniture and paintings. Their warm colours and interesting designs make them an excellent compliment to many interiors.
We love to travel all over the country showing our stock of beautiful antique and contemporary rugs in customers homes.
