8′ x 11’2″ Antique Heriz Goravan Carpet, All-over Design, Northwest Persia, Circa 1915
Probably woven in the village of Goravan in the Heriz district in northwest Persia’s Azerbaijan province, this carpet reflects the beautiful palette and archaic drawing that antique Heriz carpets are renowned for. Goravan carpets are among the most coarsely woven carpets produced in the Heriz area, however they tend to have excellent color quality, often among the best of the various types of carpets produced in the Heriz district.
This carpet features large scale leaves, palmettes and flowerheads on a terra cotta color field that is framed by a navy blue border with scrolling vines and flowerheads.
A mid-price example, it has a very decorative appearance, well suited for a variety of interior design styles. Heriz area carpets with all-over designs are less common than their medallion counterparts.
This carpet has low pile with foundation showing in a number of areas. It is being sold “as is”, as is the case with virtually all of our carpets. We can repair it to various degrees at an additional charge, depending on the client’s preferences. It has already been expertly cleaned. It is priced accordingly.
