Antique Persian Serab Rug 71745
Gorgeous Antique Persian Serab Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa date: 1920 – The village of Serab is located in Northwestern Persia and is home to a group of weavers who remained relatively isolated from the commercial influences of the global rug trades. Their isolation in the Sabalan Mountain range allowed them to develop their unique designs exposed only to other local villages in the area and nomadic tribes. The result of this isolation is a set of antique Persian rugs that showcase characteristics that will inspire a warm and welcoming interior design.
The antique tribal Persian Serab rugs are known for their unusual treatment of traditional medallion designs and with some boasting latticework backgrounds in the field. These phenomenal antique rugs are made from local sheep’s wool and / or camel hair, sometimes mixing the two, resulting in a unique range of rich, earthy browns. This Persian Serab rug is from the 1920’s and shows many of the characteristics that set Serab rugs apart.
This rug is a gorgeous blend of reds, browns, and black accents. The rectangular medallion in the center creates symmetry and gives it a formal feel. One of the more charming aspects of this rug is that it lacks the precision that you often find in rugs produced in formal rug weaving centers and schools.
The motifs and designs found in this Persian Serab rug are a result of weaving traditions that have been passed down through the generations through songs, stories, and oral traditions. This is a gorgeous piece that would complement styles that range from Boho Chic to classic. The colors are earthy and perfect for creating an organic feel in the room.
Area rugs such as this spectacular piece, are the kind of familial treasures that you will love for generations to come. It can be used on the floor as a breathtaking floor covering or as an artistic and tribal wall hanging tapestry rug. It would also be an excellent addition to a layered carpet interior design look.
