Stunning Antique Red Wool Floral Lions Serapi Rug

About the Item

This antique Serapi rug has a tomato-red field with an angular vine issuing a variety of flowerheads together with eight golden-yellow lions around a large central fox-brown medallion with palmette pendants, a central tomato-red and shaded blue cusped lozenge containing an ice-blue central lozenge with a tomato-red flowerhead surrounded by delicate shaded pink and charcoal-black angular vine linking polychrome outwardly facing palmettes, the ivory spandrels with a dusty-pink palmette surrounded by angular serrated leaf and polychrome floral vine, in a shaded indigo-blue border of polychrome turtle-palmettes linked by angular flowerhead leafy vine between fox-brown meandering floral vine stripes. Persian Serapi rugs, originating from the Heriz region in northwestern Iran, are prized for their durability, rich geometric designs, and vibrant color palettes. Known for their large central medallions and bold patterns, these rugs typically feature deep reds, blues, and ivory tones, derived from natural vegetable dyes. Handwoven in the 19th and early 20th centuries, Serapi rugs are distinguished by their high-quality craftsmanship and blend of traditional Persian and tribal elements, making them sought after by collectors and interior designers alike.
