Serapi / 14137

This Serapi antique rug, measuring 7' 8" x 11' 5", presents a grounded palette of cream, red, navy, and teal with the bold clarity Serapi design is known for. A stepped central medallion anchors the field, while angular floral and geometric forms move outward in balanced layers. The dark border adds definition, framing the composition with rosettes and octagonal motifs. Woven in wool, it carries low distress, with age-softened colour and gentle edge character that temper the graphic pattern. Circa 1885 - 1900, it reads as both structured and lived-in, with a calm, collected presence.
