About the Item

Antique Persian Serapi Carpet 9'7" x 13'4" - 292 x 406 cm Antique Serapi Wool Ivory Beige Cream White Hand Knotted Pile Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional example of 19th-century Persian weaving belongs to the esteemed category of Serapi rugs, known for their monumental scale and bold, geometric interpretation of traditional designs. Woven in the late 1890s, the piece displays the highly sought-after palette of oxidized terracotta, deep indigo, and soft highlights of ivory beige cream white. The natural dyes have mellowed beautifully over time, lending the rich patina characteristic of all truly fine antique rugs. The central medallion is powerfully rendered in saturated navy blue, contrasting sharply with the expansive salmon-pink field. The overall composition features a highly stylized, almost graphic rendering of traditional elements, including sophisticated floral motifs and complex geometric cartouches along the primary border. As a magnificent example of a late Qajar-era weaving, this piece possesses the impressive dimensions necessary to function as a foundational element in grand spaces. Its scale places it firmly among the finest room size rugs available from the Caucasus region, offering unparalleled historical depth and enduring aesthetic value for the discerning collector.
