Heriz / 12014

A Heriz on an ivory ground, woven in wool and measuring 221 x 312 cm. The composition is driven by bold, angular medallion fragments and serrated leaf forms, held within a navy and red guard border with green and gold highlights. Wear is low and even, the pile retaining a restrained, tactile surface and gentle abrash that reveals the making. The piece reads as a studied, hand-crafted antique rug, where geometric structure meets nuanced colour and timeworn texture. Circa 1900 - 1920. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
