The Serapi presents a generous, architectural medallion set against a saturated red field and cobalt corners. Woven in wool with an ivory guard border and navy accents, the geometry and palmette motifs read with crisp, graphic clarity. Surface wear is minimal, allowing the original pigments and soft abrash in the blues to read as patina rather than damage. The scale and restraint of the composition feel both rooted and refined, a tactile antique rug with a robust presence and quiet elegance. Circa 1880 - 1900. Size: 11' 0" x 14' 4".
