Large Antique Serapi Carpet, Northwest Persia, circa 1880 - 12 ft

Curated collection of antique, vintage and modern rugs Large Antique Serapi Carpet, Northwest Persia, circa 1880 Size: 12 ft 3 in x 9 ft (3.73 m x 2.74 m) A powerful room-size Serapi carpet combining monumental geometric drawing with the warmth and individuality of village weaving. The broad proportions and visually assertive composition give the carpet a strong architectural presence, while the irregularities of hand drawing preserve the personality of the individual weaver. The best Serapi carpets remain among the most adaptable nineteenth-century Persian weavings: sufficiently bold for a contemporary interior, yet deeply rooted in the historic carpet traditions of northwest Persia. Its desirable dimensions make this an especially usable example.
