About the Item

A truly exceptional and rare example of Persian weaving, this hand-knotted Heriz Serapi rug from the first quarter of the 20th century stands out for its uncommon near-square dimensions—a highly sought-after format rarely found in traditional Persian carpets. Woven in Northwest Iran, this antique Serapi rug features a bold central medallion set within a vivid red field, surrounded by striking ivory spandrels adorned with intricate motifs in blue, green, and red. Its dynamic color palette—a hallmark of Serapi craftsmanship—includes nuanced shades of blue, green, pink, and red, offering a rich visual rhythm and refined elegance. The deep navy border serves as a strong frame, beautifully detailed with stylized floral and geometric motifs in tones of green, blue, pink, and yellow, enhancing the depth and harmony of the overall design. Serapi rugs of this caliber are revered for their fine knotting, geometric clarity, and sophisticated coloration, making them prized additions to both curated collections and refined interiors. This rug’s rare near-square proportions make it uniquely versatile—ideal for centering under a table, anchoring a square or round seating area, or showcasing as a focal point in a gallery-style setting. Its exceptional quality, artistic complexity, and historical provenance make it a standout piece of early 20th-century Persian woven art.
