Antique Serapi Rug 45559

Persian Serapi Heriz Rug, Persia, Late 19th Century – Cleverly designed, this phenomenal antique Heriz Serapi rug from Persia features a bold inset medallion with incremental stepped edges set over a stark eggshell-white field. This precisely composed antique rug features a plethora of stately curvilinear patterns from Persia that are rendered in an angular style associated with Persia’s Northwestern regions, which border the stylistically different Caucasus. Representing a dichotomy of style, this elegant rug features an inset medallion with flourishing ram’s horn pendants surrounded by a stark field and fantastic turtle and vine scroll borders rendered in an angular style. Radiant apricot pink, maize yellow and chestnut brown details are offset by oxidized blue motifs and clear eggshell-white accents that highlight the richly chromatic color scheme. Poly chromatic Saz leaves, checkerboard motifs and symbolic accoutrements add to the interest and appeal of this elegant antique Heriz Serapi rug.
