Antique Serapi Floral Medallion Hand Knotted Pile Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional example of weaving artistry originates from the Heriz region of Northwest Persia, renowned for producing some of the most sought-after Serapi rugs of the late 19th century. The design centers on a dramatic stepped medallion, rendered in striking geometric precision, characteristic of the finest pieces from this period. The palette is remarkably sophisticated, utilizing natural dyes that have mellowed beautifully over time. The dominant field color is a warm, creamy ivory, providing a perfect contrast to the deep indigo and the striking oxidized reds. Subtle accents of sage and pale blue highlight the intricate details, complementing the primary rich coral hues found within the medallion and spandrels.
