Vintage Gouchan Rug · Heriz Design
203 × 297 cm · Brick Red, Navy & Ivory
A finely knotted Gouchan from eastern Persia — the Heriz medallion design rendered in vegetable-dyed wool, with the supple, cloth-like handle typical of Khorasan weaving.
Provenance and Knotting Tradition
Gouchan (Quchan) lies in the Khorasan region of northeastern Persia, a weaving area known for finely knotted, supple rugs. This piece takes the classical Heriz medallion design — a stepped central medallion with corner spandrels on an open field — but renders it at a finer knot count than the geometric village Heriz of the northwest. The result is a rug with crisp, detailed drawing and a cloth-like, supple handle.
It was hand-knotted in Gouchan in the 1970s–80s from 100 % wool on a wool foundation, coloured with natural, vegetable-based dyes. The wool-on-wool construction and the natural dyes give the piece its warm, harmonious register.
Colour and Composition
A warm brick-red field carries the fine Heriz drawing — branching floral vinework around a stepped central medallion in navy, ivory and light blue with green and rose floral interior. Ivory corner spandrels frame the field with floral sprays, and a deep navy main border carries palmettes and flowering vines. The whole is drawn in clear vegetable-dyed naturals — green, rose-pink, light blue, gold and bordeaux on the brick-red and navy grounds. Ivory wool fringes finish the ends.
Presence in the Room
At 203 × 297 cm (6.0 m²) this is a generous room-size piece. Three contexts in which the Gouchan comes into its own:
- Living room anchor: under a full seating arrangement, the medallion grounds the space and the brick-red and navy palette warms the room without competing.
- Dining room: beneath a six-to-eight-seat table, the wool surface suits dining use, and the fine composition holds its own under overhead lighting.
- Library or study: the classical Heriz geometry pairs well with bookshelves, leather and dark wood — for traditional and contemporary interiors alike.
