Antique Handsome Serapi Carpet, Handmade Wool Carpet Red Navy, Light Blue, Ivory
Located in Port Washington, NY
19th century Persian Serapi carpets are some of the most highly prized and sought-after antique Persian carpets in the world. They are characterized by their bold, geometric designs, vivid colors, and exceptional quality.
Serapi carpets were originally woven in the Heriz region of northwestern Iran, but the term "Serapi" was coined by Western carpet dealers in the late 19th century to distinguish a higher-quality version of the Heriz carpet. Serapi carpets were made using the finest wool, which was dyed using natural, vegetable-based dyes. The wool was then spun by hand and woven into carpets using a symmetrical knotting technique.
One of the defining features of 19th century Persian Serapi carpets is their bold, large-scale geometric designs. These designs often feature medallions, rosettes, and intricate borders, rendered in a palette of rich, saturated colors such as crimson, indigo, and gold. The colors used in Serapi carpets were achieved through a painstaking dyeing process that involved boiling the wool in vats of natural dyes, such as madder root or indigo.
Another hallmark of 19th century Persian Serapi carpets is their durability and sturdiness. The wool used to make these carpets was of exceptional quality, with a high lanolin content that made it resistant to wear and tear. Additionally, the carpets were woven with a tight, dense pile that added to their strength and longevity.
The size of 19th century Persian Serapi carpets is another factor that sets them apart from other antique Persian carpets. These carpets were typically large, with sizes ranging from 9 feet by 12 feet to 12 feet by 18 feet. Their large size was made custom for use in grand, formal spaces such as ballrooms and reception halls.
Overall, 19th century Persian Serapi carpets are considered to be some of the most beautiful and valuable...

Ivory Field Antique Heriz Serapi Rug
Located in New York, NY
A stunning early 20th century Heriz Serapi rug. Heriz rugs are Persian rugs from the area of Heris, East Azerbaijan in northwest Iran, northeast of Tabriz. Such rugs are produced in the village of the same name in the slopes of Mount Sabalan. Heriz carpets are extremely durable and hard-wearing and they can last for generations. 19th century examples of such carpets are often found on sale by major auction houses in United States and Europe. New Herizes are thick, tough, and often reasonable in price. Such rugs age well and become more and more beautiful with age. Part of the reason for the toughness of Heriz carpets is that Mount Sabalan sits on a major deposit of copper. Traces of copper in the drinking water of sheep produces high quality wool that is far more resilient than wool from other areas.[citation needed]
Heriz rug weavers often make them in geometric, bold patterns with a large medallion dominating the field. Such designs are traditional and often woven from memory. Heriz rugs are of coarse construction. The rugs range from 30 kpsi on the low end to 100 10 kpsi on the high end. It is rare to see a rug over 100 kpsi that would look like an authentic Heriz unless it is an antique silk Heriz.
