Experience an exceptional antique Persian Serab runner from the early 1900s, in remarkable condition! This exquisite masterpiece is a true testament to the skill and artistry of Persian rug-making. This fantastic runner features remarkable color ways, including that exquisite teal blue and raw non-dyed camel wool. It is handwoven with the finest vegetable-dyed wool, making it heavy and durable, ensuring its longevity for generations to come.
At a quick glance, the runner appears to have powerful three-poled medallions floating on water, inviting a cool dip in. The gorgeous abrash effect makes this piece incredibly unique and adds to its beauty with its varying tones of lovely blue. The medallions are adorned with eight-pointed star motifs, symbolizing happiness and fertility. Charming spandrels add a decorative element, making this runner both a functional floor covering and a wonderful work of floor art. The gazelle motif on one side of the rug symbolizes grace, dignity, and fleetness, bringing an air of elegance to the overall design.
The mountain motifs in the border band create depth and texture, adding to the rug's visual appeal. This fabulous runner is a rare find in such amazing condition and is sure to elevate any space it is placed in, whether it be a grand entrance hall, a living room, or a bedroom.
