$2,030.00 CAD
Herki rugs originate from the Kurdish Herki tribes, living mainly in the mountainous regions straddling Iran, Iraq, and Turkey. These rugs possess both a utilitarian and symbolic function.
Unlike large living room rugs, a Herki runner rug is smaller and narrower, designed to be placed in high-traffic areas such as hallways, entrances, or in front of doors.
The patterns are geometric and very symbolic, often repetitive, with natural colors obtained from vegetable dyes. Each pattern tells a story or represents a symbol of protection and luck.
Traditionally handmade from wool, with a strong cotton or wool weft, this rug combines authenticity and durability.
Designed for intensive daily use, these rugs withstand high-traffic areas of homes.
Herki rugs bring authenticity, color, and warmth to any modern interior. Their graphic and tribal style makes them highly sought-after decorative pieces for hallways, entrances, or as accent rugs in a living room or bedroom.
