Serapi / 15144

This Serapi antique rug measures 335 x 414 cm and shows the architectural balance and restrained vibrancy associated with the type. A rust red centre field is anchored by a stepped medallion in navy, cream, and white, while the blue border brings repeating floral and angular motifs into rhythm. The palette of neutral, blue, white, and cream is balanced by warmer coral and red notes, giving the piece depth without losing clarity. Low distress, gentle surface wear, and softened detail preserve an honest antique character. Circa 1880 - 1910. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
