Antique Persian Heriz / Serapi Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1900– This is a beautiful example of the understated elegance of rugs hailing from northwest Persia. The field is of a rich, earthen red and serves as the background for a simple floral motif that straddles the geometric and the organic. A gorgeous, deep royal blue in the medallion is echoed around the border, which features a more intricate scrolling of feather and lotus flower motifs. The rich color palette is counterbalanced by cream, salmon, and cerulean hues, with hints of pomegranate that add depth. This color scheme makes this Heriz rug a timeless and versatile addition to any interior.
