Code 8798 Persian Heriz Serapi Carpet 383x305cm Hand knotted

Description

This striking Heriz Serapi rug is a true representation of the legendary weaving tradition of Northwest Iran—where tribal artistry, bold design, and powerful color palettes come together to create one of the most celebrated rug styles in the world.

Hand-knotted using durable, high-mountain wool, this piece carries the unmistakable character of the Serapi sub-group: a grand central medallion, spacious geometric layout, and richly saturated reds, all resting on a foundation of pure craftsmanship.

• Central Medallion:
  The rug features a magnificent oversized medallion with stepped and angular edges—a hallmark of Serapi designs—radiating energy and graphic beauty.

• Tribal Geometry:
  Each corner of the field is filled with crisp, geometric motifs, stylized leaves, rosettes, and angular vines. These elements reflect the artistic vocabulary of the Azerbaijan tribal weavers of the Heriz region.

• Bold Color Harmony:
  A glowing red field, deep midnight navy, touches of ivory, and earthy rust tones combine to create a dramatic yet balanced color composition. Natural plant-based dyes give the rug depth and luminosity that only age and handcraft can achieve.

• Decorative Border:
  The multi-layered border features classic Heriz motifs—barber-pole outlines, stylized flowers, and serrated leaves—framed in a bold, architectural structure that enhances the presence of the carpet.

• Hand-knotted wool pile from hardy mountain sheep—renowned for its strength and lanolin-rich sheen.

• Sturdy cotton foundation, giving the rug stability and longevity.

• Large room size: 383 × 305 cm, ideal for living rooms, dining spaces, or statement interiors.

• Durability: Heriz and Serapi rugs are known to last generations due to their robust knotting and strong wool quality.

Serapi rugs represent the finest weaving tradition of the Heriz district, woven in village homes rather than commercial workshops.

This specific piece shows exceptional artistic balance—clean medallion design, crisp motifs, and a rich palette—making it not just a rug, but an heirloom collectible.

A grand, authentic Heriz Serapi rug of impressive size and beauty—handmade, richly colored, and architecturally designed—perfect for collectors, connoisseurs, and anyone looking to elevate their space with a piece of Persian heritage.
