Serapi / 14852

This Serapi antique rug measures 10' 2" x 11' 9" and presents a bold, architectural field balanced by an intricate, orderly border. The red ground is softened by cream, white, teal, and muted green accents, giving the composition a layered, timeworn clarity. A stepped medallion anchors the centre, while smaller geometric and floral forms repeat with calm symmetry across the field. Circa 1880 - 1910, the wool surface shows low distress and a gentle patina that enhances its depth without obscuring detail. The result is a composition that feels both graphic and historically grounded.
