This antique Heriz-Serapi rug showcases an outstanding arabesque rendered in a fiery selection of sun-kissed hues that are set against a midnight blue backdrop.

Antique Persian Serapi Heriz Rug, Country Of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: Early 20th Century – Superbly detailed and beautifully colored, this brilliant antique Heriz Serapi rug depicts a graceful large-format arabesque that is decorated with a rich assortment of beautifully colored botanical motifs. Carefully outlined vines and fluid floral motifs meander across the obscure midnight blue background, which creates a neutral canvas that highlights the nuanced colors. Decorative inner borders and charming guard-bands embellished with an archetypal pattern of reciprocating vine scrolls enclose the beautifully decorated field. The wondrous turtle-and-vine-scroll main borders feature saturated colors and strong scarlet reds that contrast the softly oxidized hues, which are featured in the elegantly decorated field of this spectacular antique Persian Heriz Serapi rug.
