Antique Serapi Persian Red 1880s Rug, Circa Date: 1880s. This exceptional Serapi represents the pinnacle of 19th-century Persian weaving, originating from the rugged mountains of the Heriz region. Its robust construction and sophisticated design make it a prime example among antique rugs. The striking central medallion is framed by an expansive field dominated by a rich, deeply saturated red hue. The subtle variations in the madder dyes create a mesmerizing red color palette, beautifully contrasted by accents of deep indigo and soft sky blue, characteristic of the finest natural dye work of the period. Characteristic of the finest Serapi examples, the design employs a powerful, rectilinear central motif.
