Such rugs are produced in the village of the same name in the slopes of Mount Sabalan. Heriz carpets are durable and hard-wearing, and they can last for generations. Part of the reason for the toughness of Heriz rugs is that Mount Sabalan sits on a major deposit of copper. Traces of copper in the drinking water of sheep produces high quality wool that is far more resilient than wool from other areas. Heriz weavers often make rugs in geometric, bold patterns with a large medallion dominating the field. Such designs are traditional and often woven from memory. There are several surrounding villages that make these rugs as well. The grades of these rugs are primarily based on village name. Serapi rugs, for example, have been considered the finest grade of Heriz since the beginning of the 20th century. Heriz rugs are often of coarse construction.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Rug Life","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47643134132396,"sku":null,"price":800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0754\/5906\/8076\/files\/Welcoming_Hallway_with_Ornate_Floral_Runner.png?v=1792269153","url":"https:\/\/rug-auction.com\/products\/antique-persian-heriz-hand-knotted-rug-4-6-x-9-0-137cm-x-274cm","provider":"The Rug Life","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
