A Magnificently Rustic and Beautiful Large Size Antique Persian Serapi Rug, Country of Origin / Rug Type: Antique Persian Rugs, Circa Date: Late 19th Century

Although many of the motifs are large and without detail, the fineness of the carpet can be seen in the intricate designs of several of the guard borders. The colors have acquired a sheen over the years, making the carpet stand out even more brilliantly. The pile is trimmed close, allowing the details of the antique Oriental rug to remain sharp.

This is an awe inspiring rustic antique Persian Serapi rug with a majestic and refined quality. The use of formal elements combined with tribal designs makes this carpet versatile. It could easily work well in a more formal space or an informal one. That is the beauty of Persian Serapi antique rugs, and this one is a beautiful example and a rare find.
