Antique Heriz Medallion Dusty Rose Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB9246 10'0" × 11'3"

Antique Heriz medallion rug, woven in Persia circa 1900, hand-knotted in wool and rooted in the durable northwest Persian tradition admired for its bold drawing and graphic presence. Heriz carpets are prized for their sturdy weave and distinctive interpretation of classical Persian design, and this example shows that character with particular clarity.

A dusty rose field sets a warm backdrop for the striking central medallion, rendered in deep navy blue and softened with ivory and pale blue accents. The stepped outlines, angular pendants, and mirrored details give the composition its Heriz identity, while the generous negative space around the center keeps the pattern readable and balanced. The result is richly decorative without feeling overly formal.

Framing the field, a floral border in navy, rose, ivory, and light blue adds movement through scrolling vines and rosette motifs. The palette feels time-worn yet vivid, making this antique Persian rug especially versatile for rooms that call for color, history, and a strong medallion design with enduring appeal.

Sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, this antique rug represents the caliber of craftsmanship and cultural heritage the gallery has championed since its founding in 1965. With six decades of expertise, Doris Leslie Blau remains a premier destination for rare and extraordinary rugs across a wide range of styles and price points.
