Serapi / 14801

This Serapi antique rug measures 315 x 373 cm and is woven in wool with a warm palette of rust red, brown, ivory, and sand. A stepped central medallion anchors the design, surrounded by a layered field of angular floral details and geometric accents, with borders that read clearly from edge to edge. The medium wear has gently muted the colours, lending the surface an even, settled texture. Circa 1880 - 1900, it carries the balanced structure and weathered poise associated with Serapi rugs, expressed here with quiet clarity. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
