Antique Large Red Room Size Tribal Geometric Medallion Persian Heriz Serapi Rug

Antique Large Red Serapi Persian Allover Medallion Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional late 19th-century weaving originates from the mountainous region of Northwest Persia, showcasing the robust, geometric aesthetic that defines the Serapi tradition. The palette is dominated by a deep madder red field, providing a dramatic backdrop for the complex, angular motifs rendered in indigo, cream, and sky blue. The central, highly stylized diamond medallion anchors the design, radiating intricate layers of serrated edges and stylized floral forms. While the medallion is prominent, the field is densely populated with subordinate geometric elements, creating a balanced, continuous flow characteristic of allover rugs designs. This structure prevents visual stagnation and offers depth across the expansive surface.
