SERAPI
Northwest Persian

(Connoisseur-Caliber) This spectacular Serapi exemplifies the highly creative work done in this style in the latter part of the second half of the 19th century, reflecting the influence of town weaving, such as the carpets from Ferahan, where a more formal stylized floral patterning was developed. Combining this influence with the Serapi medallion and corner piece aesthetic, a new sub-genre was born. Retaining this style’s endearing, minimalist botanical drawing presented in a spacious silhouetted format, magnificent room size carpets such as this innovative piece was created. This extremely finely crafted Serapi rarely encountered, nearly square dimensions reveals a compelling triad of ivory, burnished gold, and midnight indigo that speaks to modern color palettes. Its gracious, wide selection of secondary tonalities becomes a fresh, nuanced display, both grand and inviting. Extremely good condition heightens its great appeal.
