SERAPI
Northwest Persian (SOLD)

(High-Decorative) ("New Arrivals Gallery") Seldom found in the widely sought-after 4x6 dimensions, this non-conventional antique Serapi offers the imaginative work of a playful, highly dexterous weaver. Favoring of an orderly arrangement of ingenious small motifs rather than the traditional large stylized floral elements, uniquely envisioned serrated boteh shaped leaves balancing on tiny flower heads and other novel designs create a singular, truly folkloric rug. Marvelously sculpted dragon-esque shapes in each spandrel bask in a pool of difficult-to-render, strategically rippled Aegean blue. The main border contains an interesting assemblage of botanical designs between each oak leaf are also of the artist-weaver’s own making. Great condition further enhances this piece's great allure.
