Light Blue Heriz Wagireh Sampler RugIran
c. 1900, antique sampler/Wagireh rugs are some of the more fascinating antique rugs found on the market today. These were generally woven as strike offs when someone ordered a custom carpet, but once the actual piece was made, most people disregarded these small pieces that were created just to show what would be made as far as the colors, patterns and designs. Here we see a Heriz sampler that was created for someone who wanted a soft blue colored antique Persian Heriz-Serapi type rug. While the actual design elements within the sampler are some of the more classic in area rugs from this origin, the light blue color is rare. This is a bold and playfully drawn Heriz Wagireh which is both highly collectible and a striking decorative piece.
2 ft. x 2 ft. 2 in.
