This handwoven runner (Code 235) is a creation of the skilled artisans of Bakshaish village in the Heriz region of East Azerbaijan, Iran — where every knot tells a story of patience, heritage, and heart.
Its glowing madder-red field and border, dyed from the roots of the Rubia tinctorum plant, shimmer with warmth and vitality. The color seems almost alive — like the quiet flame of a sunset, bringing life, comfort, and a timeless elegance into the room. It’s more than a hue; it’s a feeling — one born of earth, nature, and generations of Persian artistry.
Woven with hand-spun wool and naturally dyed fibers, this runner combines authenticity, strength, and softness underfoot. The balanced geometric design — a hallmark of Heriz weaving — brings structure and harmony to the composition.
With its elongated form, this piece is ideal for hallways, entryways, beside the bed, or connecting spaces between rooms. Its radiant madder-red tone transforms every path it lies upon into a warm, inviting corridor of color and tradition.
A true Heriz Bakshaish masterpiece, this runner carries the soul of Persian craftsmanship — a living artwork where warmth, heritage, and beauty meet.
