$2,210.00 CAD
Herki carpets originate from the Herki Kurdish tribes, living mainly in the mountainous regions straddling Iran, Iraq, and Turkey. These carpets possess both a utilitarian and symbolic function.
Unlike large living room carpets, a Herki runner 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 hand-made from wool, with a strong cotton or wool warp, this carpet combines authenticity and durability.
Designed for intensive daily use, these carpets withstand high-traffic areas of homes.
Herki carpets 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.
