Primitive and Tribal Design Antique Persian Serab Runner Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1900 – Effortlessly combining vibrant tones with woodsy ones, this gorgeous runner rug is designed to captivate attention. Several vibrant borders frame around each other, drawing attention to the colors chosen as they contrast against each other without appearing out of place. Bright reds, cool blues, gentle yellows, soft peaches and grounding browns all come together in a skillful display of color and style. The borders of this antique Persian Serab rug all ultimately serve to lead the viewer’s eyes inward, where the majority of the motion takes place. Like many many of the best antique rugs, this antique Serab runner rug features a repeating pattern, starting from the top to lead the eyes down its length. Several large diamond shapes connect at their tips, each housing a smaller diamond within, which in turn houses a series of beautiful floral fronds, petals and stems.
