Antique Heriz Serapi Persian Rugs 43935

Heriz Rug, Persia, Circa 1900 - This elegant carpet from Persia features a dramatic all-over pattern with the classic geometric lines of Heriz rugs. The field is decorated with a series of branching split-leaf motifs, dramatic palmettes and stepped-latchhook symbols with scorpion-like tails that contrast dramatically against the subtle ivory field. The elegant Persian blue and red color scheme is maintained throughout the field and borders, which incorporate a turtle and vinescroll pattern and elegant Herati leaf motifs over a dramatically dark ground.
