Then there are others that can somehow accomplish both!

This antique Persian Heriz rug is one of those special examples. It can instantly impact your mood and lift your spirits. The tribal rug design is so meticulously put together but feels effortless at the same time. An allover array of highly stylized vine sprays and palmettes in shades of red and terracotta repeats across the abrashed blue field of this arresting antique Persian rug. The drawing exudes spontaneous yet soothing energy. The abrash or variegation of the field color gives an impression of depth like a limitless sky or sea.

The main ‘turtle’ vine-scroll border set on a red ground minor borders offers the perfect contrast. These smaller size borders ground and frame the field perfectly while retaining the color tones of the vines and palmettes. Here we see the intuitive sensibilities of Persian village rug weavers at their best.

When art is created at this scale, such quality of design is rarely matched.
