SERAPI
Northwest Persian Antique Carpet

(High-Collectible) ("New Arrivals") This over one-and-one-half-centuries-old Serapi, brimming with innovative drawing and sumptuous color, is a tour-de-force of inventive re-imagining of this endearing style. it is unique, from the multi-petal indigo center of the medallion to the large abstracted botanical forms in the corner pieces. The overscale, elemental deconstructed flowers and leaves that fill the spacious medallion and field are delightfully expressive. Adding to the artistry are the gloriously and deftly dyed sunrise reds that offset similarly nuanced azure, turquoise and seafoam green in the spandrels. The entrancing blossom and vine motif on the warm sandstone-toned main border is equally artful, its meandering chain of oak leaves forming loops that rise and fall in a lifelike rhythm.
