Serapi / 13147

This Serapi antique rug, 353 x 528 cm, is composed in a deep red ground set against cream and neutral detailing, with restrained notes of soft blue and terracotta giving the design lift. The layout centres on a strong medallion, surrounded by angular floral ornament and layered borders that create a clear, structured field. Its wool surface shows low distress, with gentle wear and mellowing that soften the palette while keeping the motifs legible. Circa 1900 - 1920, this Serapi reflects the confident geometry and timeworn presence associated with the form.
