Geometric Antique Persian Serapi Allover Pattern Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1900 – A striking blue-green field and a warm rust-red border give this antique Persian Serapi rug a strong decorative presence. Dating to circa 1900, its elongated proportions accommodate an intricate allover composition of angular vines, diamond motifs, and finely drawn flowers.
Rows of dark-outlined diamonds establish a clear rhythm across the field. Each encloses floral ornaments surrounded by serrated leaves, branching stems, and rosettes in ivory, coral, ochre, and deep blue. Subtle variations in the individual motifs soften the geometry, giving the pattern the engaging character typical of antique Serapi rugs. The rust-red main border provides a lively contrast to the cooler field. Stylized flowers alternate along a winding angular vine, while ivory and blue details connect the border to the interior design. Narrow floral guard borders complete the frame cleanly.
Measuring 7 ft 6 in x 14 ft 3 in, this rug is well-suited for a long living room, library, or spacious passageway. Its continuous pattern allows for flexible furniture placement while preserving visual balance. The blue-green and rust palette pairs beautifully with wood, leather, linen, and warm neutral upholstery.
For those drawn to the bold artistry of antique Persian rugs, this Serapi offers exceptional structure and detail. Its distinctive proportions as well as harmonious colors make it a standout piece from Nazmiyal’s antique rug collection.
