Heriz Silk Rugs
Heriz carpets tend to be coarse thick rugs
with a heavy handle. One group attributed to
Heriz is very much the opposite. The Heriz silk
rugs tend to be fine. Finner as a group then the
silk rugs attributed to Tabriz. The rugs also
have a very soft handle.
There is some difference of opinion as to
where these rugs are made. The market attributes
them to Heriz but many knowledable people suggest
a tabriz attribution.
