Description

A captivating antique Heriz Serapi runner from the early 20th century, handwoven in Northwest Persia and dated 1327 in the Islamic calendar (circa early 1900s). This wide-format runner features a bold and balanced geometric medallion design on a richly abrash terracotta red field—hallmark colors of the Heriz-Serapi weaving tradition.

Seven axial medallions in navy, Persian blue, and ivory are symmetrically connected along a central spine, with smaller terminal medallions anchoring each end. The composition is framed by a trio of narrow borders in Persian blue, earthy brown, and terracotta red, providing rhythmic contrast and framing the dynamic field.

Charming tribal elements—including small-scale animal figures and geometric motifs—are intricately woven throughout, reflecting the artistry and storytelling heritage of the region’s master weavers. This piece is not only a functional runner but also a collectible textile that embodies the beauty and soul of Persian craftsmanship.

Ideal for hallways, entryways, or layered in larger spaces, this Heriz Serapi runner offers timeless style, durability, and heritage-rich character for both traditional and modern interiors.
