4’8″ x 5’3″ Antique Heriz “Serapi” Rug, Northwest Persia, Cira 1890
Antique Heriz rugs of the early type, often colloquially referred to as antique “Serape” rugs, are prized for warm colors and geometric designs. Ivory field examples are especially uncommon. This rug features a brick red medallion with camel color trim on an ivory field. Navy blue corner spandrels with apple green insets and a brick red border with beautiful drawing and of grand scale, complemented by sky blue guard borders, frame the field.
This piece has fairly extensive restoration and is priced accordingly. It is an outstanding example.
