10012 · 5'10" x 9'6" Persian Heriz Area Rug

Blue, cream and terracotta sit on the charming rust field. Over a rust field, angular vines and stepped shapes in blue, cream and terracotta form a dense geometric pattern. A large serrated medallion of rust and blue sits at the center, with a smaller notched lozenge stacked above and below it. Splendid cream and blue spandrels with jagged motifs occupy the four corners of the field. The main border is slate blue, carrying terracotta diamonds, cream crosses and blue lozenges along its length. A narrow tan guard stripe edges the field inside the border. Small patches of the field have lower pile, where the rust reads paler. It settles the strong contrast of copper and blue into a steady, graphic presence. At 5'10" by 9'6", it fits a bedroom beside the bed, a study under a desk, or a small sitting area.

Every rug we sell is one of a kind, and this is the only one like it. It is hand-knotted wool pile on a cotton foundation, professionally washed and cleaned before it reaches you, and shipped folded and fully insured. Age-related wear and the small inconsistencies of a handmade weave are part of what these rugs are.
