SERAPI
Northwest Persian Antique Carpet

(Connoisseur-Caliber) Antique Serapi carpets are perennially loved for their diverse iterations while maintaining a quintessential spirit. This stunning carpet from the Village tradition is remarkable for its pattern ingenuity and beguiling beauty. Striking aqua green laurels bracket the striated indigo medallion where filigree veined fronds extend from a lotus flower. Stocky voluted pendants stir the casually drawn botanical melange of stylized blossoms, leaves, and vinery, providing a swirling counterpoint to the carpet's lobed centerpiece. Try to find all the endearing tribal bird motifs hidden in the foliage. Its singular border of billowy peonies, diminutive roses, and fanciful fiery flowerheads are densely patterned. This creates a perfect visual contrast to the more spacious placement of field elements while also achieving chromatic harmony. Its surface is graced with a gentle patina that accentuates its clarity and tasteful 19th-century palette
