Large Size Antique Persian Heriz Serapi Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: Late 19th Century – Impeccably executed, this stylish antique Persian Serapi rug from Heriz depicts a radiant octofoil medallion set over a variety of inset panels that are rendered in clear, contrasting colors. Bold terra cotta reds, deep midnight blues and crisp white accents are juxtaposed beautifully and linked by a continuous series of charming botanical motifs and angular lines. Serrated edges, polychromatic motifs and dramatic palmettes define the complex lines that divide the intricately decorated field and highlight the edges of the elaborate spandrels. Exquisite turtle and vine scroll main borders with elaborate intertwining floral motifs and offset fins decorate the somber midnight blue borders, which are enclosed by intricately detailed guard bands. This exceptional antique Heriz Serapi rug incorporates an excellent combination of strong lines, intricate details and pure colors.
