Antique Persian Heriz Serapi Rug 90005

Captivating Antique Persian Heriz Serapi Rug , Country of Origin / Rug Type: Antique Persian Rugs, Circa Date: 1880’s – The striking colors of this beautiful Heriz Serapi rug would make the perfect touch to styles ranging from traditional to contemporary. Serapi carpets are named for the town of Serab. They are included in the Heriz group and have the traditional large medallion design with large corners and featuring several areas of different background colors.

One of the features that makes this carpet stand out is the use of white in the center. Typically, natural wool has a more cream or ivory color, but this carpet features a brilliant white. The sky blue layer compliments the color scheme beautifully by creating an area of contrast. The midnight blue in the center creates a focal point that is supported by the other layers of the antique rug.

The design of the carpet uses only a few individual elements. This creates a feeling of openness and the use of “white” space, highlighting the scale of the design. This design would make an excellent addition to a formal setting. The design was carried out with precision, an indication that it was produced in a formal weaving center located in the city, rather than by tribes situated outside of the larger population center.

The central medallion contains a stylized cross design, which is a symbol of faith. The area surrounding the design is similar to the architectural style of the dome of a mosque. This formal structure makes it suitable for a more elegant and refined interior design, but its use of color and larger motifs also give it a more tribal character.

The colors of the rug and skill of the weavers is an excellent example of why Serapi rugs were considered to be of exceptional quality, so much so that the word has come to be a quality designation. The carpet was carried out with precision, and the colors are well-thought-out. Serapi rugs are densely packed and durable.

This is a remarkable piece where color and design come together to create a Persian rug that stands out for its sublime beauty. The colors of the carpet make it versatile and provide a variety of design possibilities. This is a striking rug that will be the focal point of the room design.
