Heriz is situated in mountainous country within an important weaving area in North West West Asia. The carpets taking the name of Heriz are woven in the villages within a 30 mile radius of the town by the same name. Many different qualities and variations on a similar design are produced. The typical Heriz carpet has a strictly rectilinear medallion design that has changed little over many decades; older rugs have madder grounds and medallions mostly of indigo, today these colours are still evident but with some additions of light blue, medium green, terracotta and warm yellows. Heriz carpets have a foundation of cotton warps and wefts, a thick and long pile of excellent wool, thus producing hard-wearing durable carpets.
This is a modern twist on an old design originally woven in the Caucasian mountains. Today these rugs are woven by Afghan weavers in North West Pakistan. The excellent quality of the hand spun wool and the use of traditional designs give these rugs a look which would look great in both modern and traditional homes.
The modern production of Kazak rugs and carpets is largely woven by Afghan refugee weavers in the Pakistan border region. These rugs and carpets are based on traditional Caucasian designs and woven with good quality wool yarns, much of which has been dyed using natural vegetable dyes thus adding to their vibrant and dramatic appearance

Indian Garous Design is a small village near to Heriz in the Azerbaijan area of Northwest West Asia, one of the most prolific weaving areas. Qarajeh is best known for its production of runners and large carpets, but it is occasionally possible to find smaller weaving production in this area.
Carpets are woven on both workshop and cottage industry basis. Although in a village such as Qarajeh it is more typical that a lady working from home, as part of a cottage industry weaves the carpets.
Hooked hexagons or squares are a characteristic of carpets woven in this village. Other typical designs include the use of simple, angular vines, and strong central medallions. Each rug has its own unique charm and will add warmth and comfort to any home.
This particular Karajar runner is preloved but well looked after. The deep reds, forest greens, pinks and ivory are still in a very good condition and have a lovely sheen to them still.

A handsome Malayer rug made circa 1920s, it is hand spun in hand made wool with various subtle abrash (change of colour) running through particularly the indigo main field, there is slight wear in the main field and both the ends and the side cords have had some repair work done to them. It's recently been professionally cleaned. You will notice on one the left-hand side of the rug in one of the borders there is a slight hiccup where the weaver has tried to draw the design back in again as she's been making the rug and there's a step in in the border which is quite a nice feature to prove that it's a handmade rug. This rug is a very good looking, handsome, traditional village production rug that is worthy of a good home.
