The long chain of brown hexagons and star medallions makes this an amazing rug. Brown hexagons and star medallions in cream and navy alternate down a deep red field in a long chain. Each hexagon holds a pale cross-shaped figure edged with hooked points, and tiny crosses and flowers fill the red between them. Navy side pieces with cream sawtooth edges step into the field at the corners and along both sides, carrying small flower sprays and a red and blue wing shape. Navy forms the main border, holding a row of small rosettes between orange guard stripes of tiny diamonds. Every figure keeps a crisp edge in a full, clean pile. It suits a long entry, the strong red leading while the beautiful cream stars catch the eye. At 3'8" by 13'3", it fits a hallway or the space along the side of a bed.
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.
About Gorevan rugs
Heriz carpets as the trade knows them do not predate the middle of the 19th century, when they took the place of a rustic weaving made for local use. Gorevan is a village in the Heriz district of northwestern Persia. It weaves in the same language as its better-known neighbor: big angular medallions, terracotta and copper against ivory, and spandrels squared off at the corners. This runner speaks it clearly, with angular stars and hexagons and cream set against copper and brown. It departs in the ground, a bright deep red rather than terracotta, and in the plan, a line of medallions rather than one big center. Gorevan pieces were built for rooms that get walked through, and a runner suits that.

Returns & exchangesMade entirely by hand.
Every knot in this rug was tied by hand, one at a time, on an upright loom. A piece like this is the work of two or three weavers sitting side by side for months, wool worked row by row into a pattern carried from memory, its colors softened by decades of light and use. Nothing about it was quick, and no two are ever the same.
The kind of thing that only gets better with age, and quietly passes from one home to the next.
