HERIZ is a city in Northwestern
Iran. Rugs from this city are world renown for their unique style.
Coarsely woven with the Turkish or symmetrical knot, they usually have a
large diamond or floral geometric medallion with square and rectangular
corners that resemble the centerpiece. The design is usually geometric
with overall motifs in the very busy background. They are highly prized
for their marvelous design and sturdiness.
