About the Item
This Mid-20th century Persian Afshar rug, measuring 4' 0" x 5' 4", presents a captivating display of geometric refinement balanced with subtle color harmony. The rug’s field is dominated by a bold stepped diamond medallion rendered in soft beige and ivory, accented with delicate lavender, sage, and pale aqua highlights. Within this central form, finely articulated geometric motifs and small rosettes lend rhythm and intricacy, creating a layered visual depth.
The surrounding ground showcases a delicate scatter of smaller motifs, diamond patterns, rosettes, and subtle angular forms that emphasize the rug’s balance between tribal spontaneity and structured design. The corner spandrels, filled with dot-like arrangements in pale aqua and faded lavender, introduce a lively contrast that frames the central medallion with quiet elegance.
Encased within a restrained border of small-scale stylized devices, this piece reflects the artistry of Afshar weavers, celebrated for their ability to merge tribal character with refined composition in an intimate room-size format.

Zabihi Collection Serab Camel Hair Rug
Located in New York, NY
An antique Serab camel hair rug from the early 20th century
3'11'' x 6'4''
The best antique rugs and carpets utilizing undyed camelhair are quite rare, as they represent a limited production of just a handful of the rug weaving villages and tribal encampments of the mountainous district of Northwest Persia. Prized camelhair yarn, often spun from the wool of the weaver's own camels yields exceptionally soft and glowing earth tones and like top quality sheep's wool, it is very strong and resilient to wear. Color striations, known as abrash, yield a surprisingly wide range of earth tone hues from blonde to wheat to walnut and even chocolate brown, greatly enhancing the aesthetic of this style of weaving.
The major regions of origin were Persian Kurdistan and Azerbaijan. The most notable pieces come from the towns of Bijar, Malayer, Serab and Bakshaish and the surrounding villages. Most of the Camelhair rugs...
