Antique Persian Serab Runner

No. 18479
Persia, Early 20th Century
4 ft. 1 in. x 16 ft. 9 in.
(1.23 x 5.07 m)

The town of Serab is located on the edge of the Heriz weaving area and almost exclusively weaves runner (kenares) and a few scatters. The four cartouche subfields each similarly display doubly pendanted camel-tone hexagons lozenge pattern grounds. Plain camel tone outer border and a reversing rosette major stripe. Probably a Hamadan copy of a Serab, but the decorative effect and palette are identical.
