Ararat Rugs Fish Surrounding Lotuses Rug Masi Awita Revival Carpet, Natural Dyed
About the Item
The source of the rug comes from the book Antique Rugs of Kurdistan A Historical Legacy of Woven Art, James D. Burns, 2002 nr.31. This blue background rug has a variation of masi awita (fish around the lotus) pattern from Senna, Eastern Kurdistan area late 19th century. The field design on this rug is called by the Kurds Masi Awita (fish composite or fish around the lotus). Masi is the Kurdish word for the Farsi Mahi (where the Persians use an h the Kurds use an s), meaning fish. The fish swimming around the lotus flower represents the Yin and Yang, a concept brought to Kurdistan by the Mongols in the 13th century. Western carpet literature refers to this design as the Herati pattern. The design of this rug is interpreted by our designers and the most appropriate colors to match the original are used for this rug.

ARARAT RUGS
We know and believe that the geography we come from, our past, and our lifestyle are the most important bond between us to carry the oriental carpet art and culture to the next generations along with our core values in our ongoing growth journey.
We are aware that the way to achieve this goal and carry this priceless art and culture to the future depends on a lot of work with all our people every day while adhering to our core values.
For us, art is meaningful in the sense that it brings together various cultures around the world. It is an honor for us that oriental carpet art and culture have been instrumental in this for centuries and that we are a part of this business.
We are tirelessly keeping an eye on auction house information around the world about carpets. New York's Metropolitan, London's Victoria & Albert Museums, and other famous art museums, as well as small specialized museums that house private collections, and books about oriental carpets to collect information on outstanding carpet designs and patterns from around the world. It's our Self-improving and Self-developing culture.
As Turkish Culture of Hospitality, the Kurdish Culture of Generosity, and as Japanese Culture of Business Punctuality; are the most important values that this multicultural background has taught and bequeathed to us. It is essential and valuable for us that you feel this feeling not only by looking at our oriental carpets but from the moment you contact us.

- Antique Persian Serapi Carpet, Handmade Wool Oriental Rug Ivory, RustLocated in Port Washington, NYExtremely Rare size, which leads us to believe this carpet originally was a custom order for a Nobel Family. Antique Serapi carpets are one of the most sought after rugs particularly in America and England for many years. Antique Serapi rugs are a major draw particularly in big city America. Serapi carpets were woven on the level of small workshop with multiple weavers working several years to complete each rug. Highly skilled artisans, they continually reinterpreted the design as they wove, creating highly spontaneous and inventive artistry. Measures: 16'2" x 18'2". Serapi is a term that is a mystery in the Persian antique carpet market. There is no location or tribe of this name. Sarab, also spelled Saab, a town in northwestern Persia, is known for weaving only runners with a camel hair pile during the nineteenth century. "Serapi" may be a nickname given by American dealers...Category
