Heriz Serapi 1801

This exceptional late 19th-century Persian Heriz Serapi rug is a remarkable representation of village weaving from Northwest Persia, celebrated for its artistry, durability, and rich use of color. The rug features a deep, dark red field accented by striking corner spandrels in rare and desirable French blue and soft pink tones, enhancing the balance and visual allure of the composition.

At the center lies a commanding medallion in navy, French blue, yellow, and red, woven with elegant symmetry and clarity. A navy blue border frames the design with motifs in green, blue, yellow, pink, and red, echoing the palette of the field and medallion while adding rhythmic visual interest. The rug's color variations, or abrash, reveal brilliant shifts in blue, pink, red, and yellow—testament to the use of natural vegetable dyes and the time-softened beauty they impart. With its fine craftsmanship, luminous palette, and classic proportions, this room-size Heriz Serapi is a rare and stunning addition to refined traditional or eclectic interiors.
