More information

Heriz Persian carpets are renowned for their durability, distinctive geometric designs, and deep, rich colors. Originating from the Heriz region in Northwest Iran, these carpets have been a staple of Persian craftsmanship for centuries.

Wool Sumak Heriz Persian carpets are traditional flat-woven rugs that combine the robustness of wool with the intricate craftsmanship of Sumak weaving. These carpets are known for their durability, detailed designs, and cultural significance within Persian rug-making traditions.

A Sumak Heriz Persian carpet is typically used as a decorative centerpiece in formal living rooms, bedrooms, or reception areas, where its intricate design and luxurious material can be fully appreciated. 

Sumak Heriz Persian Carpet Key Characteristics

• Material: Made entirely from wool, these carpets are known for their durability and resilience. Wool's natural elasticity and strength make these carpets long-lasting, even in areas with moderate foot traffic.
• Weaving Technique: The Sumak weaving technique used in these carpets is a type of flat-weave method, distinct from the more common knotted pile rugs. In Sumak weaving, threads are wrapped around the warps, creating a pattern that is both intricate and durable. This method produces a rug with a flat surface, without the raised pile typical of other Persian carpets. The result is a tightly woven, sturdy textile that is highly resistant to wear and tear.
• Design: Wool Sumak Heriz carpets typically feature bold, geometric patterns that are characteristic of Heriz designs. These often include central medallions, complex borders, and stylized floral or vegetal motifs. The flat-weave technique allows for sharp, clear lines and detailed patterns, making these carpets visually striking.
• Color Palette: These carpets usually incorporate a rich color palette, with natural dyes used to create deep reds, blues, and earthy tones. The use of natural dyes gives the carpets a unique, organic look with slight variations in color that add to their charm.

The Sumak technique is particularly labor-intensive and requires a high level of skill. It involves wrapping the weft threads over and under the warps in a particular sequence to create patterns.

Unlike other flat-woven rugs like kilims, Sumak weaves result in a slightly thicker and more textured surface. The absence of knots and the continuous wrapping of threads make Sumak rugs more resistant to unraveling, which contributes to their durability.

Sumak Heriz Persian carpet is not only a functional piece but also a work of art, often used in spaces where it can be appreciated for its beauty and craftsmanship.
