Replete with gorgeous vine scroll and floral elements, this richly detailed antique Persian carpet is an expertly woven piece, and a remarkable example of the antique Persian Serapi area rug style. A wonderful arrays of reds and blues in varying shades and depths give this regal carpet the impression of movement, the petals of the central floral medallion practically undulating against the red of the field. Richly adorned corner pieces of pale red and real help to frame the central action of the carpet, an effect which is further enhanced by the complex, graceful border of the rug.

This gorgeous antique carpet is a brilliant example of a unique and exciting antique Persian Heriz area rug type.
