About the Item
19th Century N.W. Persian Serapi Carpet ( 14'8" x 18'8" - 447 x 570 )
Antique Large Serapi Persian Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This magnificent example of late 19th-century weaving hails from the Heriz region of Northwest Persia. Serapi rugs are celebrated for their distinctive geometric interpretations of classical motifs, offering a sophisticated alternative among antique rugs.
The expansive field is dominated by a highly desirable, naturally oxidized saffron hue, which has mellowed over time into a rich brown earth tone. This warm ground provides a striking contrast to the stylized floral and vine work rendered in terracotta, deep indigo, and vibrant turquoise blue accents, showcasing the masterful use of natural dyes typical of the era.
The impressive scale of this piece confirms its status as a highly sought-after furnishing textile. Its generous dimensions make it an ideal choice for grand living spaces or formal dining rooms, qualifying it as a true large oversized rug of the period, capable of anchoring a substantial interior design scheme.
Unlike the typical central medallion designs often found in Persian weaving, this Serapi features a dense, repeating composition that covers the entire field. This elegant, non-directional arrangement is characteristic of allover rugs, ensuring visual balance from any perspective. The piece is framed by a bold, angular border system featuring palmettes and stylized cartouches set against a striking teal ground.
