SERAB CAMELHAIR RUNNER, Northwest Persian
3' 9" x 12' 10" Circa 1900 Price: $13,000
(High-Decorative)
This spirited geometric Serab Camelhair runner offers an extremely lustrous wool pile that, happily, has been maintained in virtually unblemished, full-pile condition. As a result, the naturally dyed colors are clear and vibrant against the deep camelhair surround. This antique Persian carpet's use of rarely encountered celadon and emerald green add particular appeal. Based on the ancient serpentine motif, its angular pattern language is wonderfully elemental and vitalizing.
