The Lachak-Toranj design is one of the most iconic and historic patterns in Heriz carpets, originating from the Azerbaijan region of Iran. Dating back to the late 19th century, this design is distinguished by its bold geometry, angular medallions, and strong symmetry. Unlike the more delicate central Persian medallion rugs, Heriz Lachak-Toranj patterns are architectural, powerful, and expressive of rural and tribal craftsmanship.

A defining feature of antique Heriz rugs is the frequent use of brick red tones. Traditionally produced with natural dyes, this earthy red color was widely used as a field or structural color in older Heriz carpets. Over time, brick red ages gracefully, developing depth and patina that enhance the rug’s authenticity and visual richness.

In this piece, the combination of the Lachak-Toranj layout with brick red tones reflects the spirit of classic antique Heriz rugs admired in museum collections and private holdings. It is an ideal choice for interiors seeking timeless design, strength of character, and a strong connection to Persian weaving heritage.
