Antique Red Serapi Persian Geometric Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional Serapi exemplifies the finest weaving tradition of Northwest Persia, characterized by its robust structure and highly stylized, angular design motifs. Serapi rugs, woven in the Heriz region, are highly sought after among collectors of antique rugs for their enduring quality and graphic presence. The central field is dominated by a rich, deeply saturated madder red, providing a warm foundation for the intricate geometric lattice. This palette is expertly balanced with striking light and dark tonal variations, creating a dynamic visual rhythm. The skillful use of natural dyes results in a magnificent abrash, enhancing the depth of the red tones and main ground.
