Crafted in Northwest Persia, this spectacular antique Heriz-Serapi rug depicts an exquisite rectilinear arabesque that supports a subtle intimated medallion.

Antique Persian Room Size Tribal Heriz Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: Early 20th Century – This beautifully composed antique Persian Serapi rug showcases an archetypal angular medallion that is set over a distinctive rosy brick-red field. The tonal medallion radiates from a classic octofoil centerpiece that expands into a grand rectilinear arabesque with carefully outlined details. Branching vines, deeply serrated Saz leaves and dramatic floral motifs rendered in an array of contrasting colors adorn the highly decorative field of this beautiful Persian rug. The somber reciprocating vine scroll borders form a grounded frame that supports the central medallion and reflects the rich assortment of colors that are featured in the elaborate arabesque. Decorative guard-bands that are adorned with charming floral motifs and undulating vine scrolls complete the classical composition of this archetypal antique Persian Heriz rug.
