An absolutely exquisite rare size 19th century antique bold Persian Serapi rug.
14’3” x 18’10”
The finest antique Persian Serapis are geometric or stylized floral in design. The great majority of 19th century Serapi rugs are ennobled by a commanding, multi-lobed center medallion flanked by four corner pieces and a nature-inspired palette of breathtaking colors. Antique Serapis have historically been the carpet of choice in early American state and Federal buildings (including the White House).
