Antique Serapi Carpet
£32,500 $44,275 €37,443
This is an amazing antique Serapi carpet, with an incredibly fine weave, typical of earlier carpets from this north-west region of Heriz in Persia. The colour palette is stunning, rare four ivory corner spandrels lift the palette and famous for Serapi''s and finer Heriz weaves. A very rare and collectable carpet. The variation in the indigo blue and red dyes, showing vivid ''abrash'' (dye change) adds to this circa 1890-1900. With large geometric leaves connected with vines to stylised floral motifs, the detailing is beautifully spaced out and well drawn.
The combination of design and colour make this a breathtaking piece, that is even better seen with the human eye. Please request a home visit to see this rare and very fine antique Serapi carpet at home. We love to travel all over the UK visiting clients and working with interior designers.
The condition is very good, with a fine tight weave and finely cut pile height all over. In exceptional original order for this 130 ye...ar old plus carpet. Visit our barn showroom in Crondall, Surrey or please request a home viewing to see this Serapi carpet in-situ soon.
Antique Serapi carpets are more intricate finer tribal weavings of the Heriz region hand-woven by Azerbaijan Turkish inhabitants close to the city of Heriz in North-West Persia. They are famous among collectors because of their vivid vegetable dyes or soft earth tones that are woven on a geometric pattern. In terms of design, drawing, and coloration as well, Serapi carpets are clearly part of one and the same tradition as Heriz, despite being a distinct antique rug style, which originated as a Northwest Persian adaptation of early Sarouk-Farahan medallion, but with a more geometric, abstract, village sensibility.
