SERAB CAMELHAIR RUNNER, Northwest Persian

Late 19th Century
(High-Decorative)
Coveted by rug enthusiasts and art lovers alike, natural camel hair, with its wide range of tonalities, offers a sophisticated and fresh alternative to traditional antique rug colors. This Serab runner possesses a bold hand-crafted design that breathes fresh life into a classic visual device. Known as the Herati motif, curling “koi fish” leaves encircle a rosette-centered diamond lattice within each hexagonal medallion. Those truncated at the edges reveal much more to the pattern than initially meets the eye. Poignant contrasts are created by nuances of color and changes of pattern texture using a primarily earth tone palette of joyous naturally dyed hues. An engaging linked-jewel sequence in the border flashes with brilliant hues. Amazingly, this is also a highly durable piece with heavier pile condition.
