Happy Heriz – Antique Persian Karaja Heriz Area Rug – 4’6″ x 6’0″ ft.

This antique Persian Karaja Heriz area rug, woven circa the 1900s, measures 4’6″ x 6’0″ and features a bold, highly structured geometric tribal design. The central canvas is anchored by a vibrant madder red field, which provides a high-contrast foundation for a traditional vertical sequence of three distinct geometric medallions. The striking central medallion features a stepped hexagonal profile utilizing a crisp ivory ground and a dark navy blue core, while the accompanying top and bottom medallions are intricate, latch-hooked geometric cross forms rendered in factual tones of dark teal and light blue. The surrounding red field is densely populated with angular, stylized botanical forms and traditional tribal latch-hook motifs in coordinating tones of navy, ivory, and soft pink. The interior field is framed by a traditional multi-banded border system. The broad primary border utilizes a dark navy blue ground to display a continuous, repeating sequence of classic geometric rosettes and angular vines. This main band is cleanly flanked by structured inner and outer guard stripes, providing a sharp visual boundary to the vibrant central canvas. Crafted using a traditional hand-knotted wool construction, this antique piece features the dense, resilient pile characteristic of turn-of-the-century Karaja and Heriz weaving. This highly durable construction is deliberately designed to provide exceptional longevity and maintain its distinct structural pattern under regular daily use. Scaled as a versatile small-to-medium area rug, this piece provides functional floor coverage and a distinct, graphic tribal aesthetic suitable for intimate seating arrangements, entryways, or home offices.
