A fine example of an early 20th-century Persian Heriz carpet, featuring the characteristic geometric design for which the weaving district is renowned. The field displays a complex arrangement of angular floral motifs, stylized leaves, and serrated palmettes rendered in a bold yet harmonious composition. The soft madder-red ground provides a warm foundation for an intricate palette of indigo blue, ivory, light blue, and touches of olive and rose.
The broad navy main border is adorned with a continuous meandering vine bearing rosettes and palmettes, framed by narrow guard stripes with reciprocal motifs. The design demonstrates the distinctive village aesthetic of Heriz weavers, balancing robust geometry with a refined sense of symmetry.
