It measures an impressive 747x74cm or 24'6x2'5. It's certainly one of the longest runners in our stock. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis extra long runner displays a traditional geometric Persian Heriz design consisting of multiple medallions set against an orange-rust field with dark blue main border. It contains numerous detail shades including light blue, green, yellow and cream.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere can I use this handmade extra long Indo Heriz runner?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe epic proportions of this Indo Heriz runner make it ideal for use in long hallways and corridors. The narrow width is an added benefit, especially for use in narrow corridors. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRunner rugs are made to be walked upon, so it'll be perfectly durable for this purpose. It is made with a chunky woollen pile so you will find it to be a long-lasting addition. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHeriz design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design of this long Indian runner emanates from Persia and the city\/town of Heriz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe carpets historically produced in Heriz are famously geometric with strong angular patterns. These are characterful designs made with chunky knots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow was this long runner made? \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt was handmade and made by a method of hand-knotting. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiven the width of this runner, it would have been woven by one weaver and made on a rolling loom (due to its exceptional length). On this type of loom, as the weaving proceeds the woven part of the runner is wound around the lower beam of the loom. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-knotting is where the weaver ties tufts of coloured woollen yarn onto pairs of warp threads. Each tuft is a knot. The different coloured knots form the pattern of the rug. The weaver will tie knots in rows across the width of the loom and will follow this by weaving weft threads between the warps. As you can imagine, this takes time - a lot of time!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDid you know?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandmade runners of such a length are very rare. Not many are made due to the length of time it takes to make, as well as the fact that most homes cannot accommodate such a size. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eKey details: \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCountry of origin:\u003c\/b\u003e India \/ Bhadohi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDimensions: \u003c\/b\u003e747x74cm \/ 24’6”x2’5”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eThickness: \u003c\/b\u003e10mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePile:\u003c\/b\u003e Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWarp: \u003c\/b\u003eCotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAge:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Oriental Rug Merchant Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58081601093963,"sku":"TORM-1042-HANDMADE EXTRA LONG INDO HERIZ RUNNER-747 X 74CM","price":1450.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1070\/3113\/4539\/files\/Indo-Heriz-Xlong-7.47x0.74m-MAIN.jpg?v=1786283451","url":"https:\/\/theorientalrugmerchant.co.uk\/products\/handmade-extra-long-indo-heriz-runner","provider":"The Oriental Rug Merchant Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
