A visually captivating Persian Heriz rug from the first quarter of the 20th century, this room-size antique piece embodies the essence of traditional village weaving from Northwest Persia’s Azerbaijan region. Set against a rich burgundy field, the rug features a large-format design with a striking open layout—creating a sense of space and balance rarely seen in Heriz rugs of this era.

The central medallion is a harmonious mix of baby blue, pink, red, yellow, and green, while the yellow and blue spandrels echo and enhance the design symmetry. The navy blue border anchors the composition with geometric detailing and vibrant contrast.

What truly sets this piece apart is its extraordinary palette achieved through the use of organic vegetable dyes. Abrash tones of soft yellow, brilliant baby blue, rose pink, and verdant green evolve naturally throughout the rug, offering visual richness and the nuanced beauty that only age and authenticity can bring. In excellent vintage condition, this Heriz is ideal for collectors and interior designers seeking a bold yet elegant foundation for classic, eclectic, or bohemian spaces.
