A remarkable and generously proportioned antique Persian Heriz Karajeh runner, handwoven in the early 20th century in the Azerbaijan province of Northwest Persia. This piece showcases the iconic tribal aesthetic of the Heriz region, featuring a bold geometric medallion pattern set on a richly saturated red field. A sequence of nine small, axial medallions—each a unique variation of the diamond form—is rendered in a dynamic palette of abrash green, navy, ivory, pink, and red, highlighting the weaver’s skill and the natural variations in hand-dyed wool.
The runner is framed by a distinctive navy border, intricately patterned with stylized geometric motifs that contrast beautifully with the red ground. An additional narrow red border, adorned with small-scale angular designs, ties the composition together, creating a harmonious balance of form and color.
Ideal for wide hallways, entryways, or layered in large rooms, this Heriz Karajeh runner blends authenticity, artisanal craftsmanship, and timeless style—an exceptional addition for collectors, designers, or anyone seeking a rare, character-rich statement piece.
