{"product_id":"m1566-antique-red-persian-heriz-serapi-rug","title":"M1566 - Antique Red Persian Heriz Serapi Rug","description":"Antique Red Persian Heriz Serapi Rug 11'5 x 14'4. This carpet is a fine example of the eccentric and imaginative Serapi quality Heriz carpets woven at the end of the 19th century. The attractive madder red field has lobate corner extensions and centers a blue outer medallion enclosing ivory, red and salmon layered six lobed irregular motives. At the very focus is an octagon of several pile colors. The field and corners display a geometric formal vine with blossoms and floral elements. The main border, in palest pistachio green, employs the popular rosette and bent leaf pattern in a rendition characteristic of the late 19th century. The rug is of medium weave with a flat back and has an all-cotton foundation with symmetric pile knotting. There are no other Serapi Heriz carpets of the period resembling this unusual example, indicating that it is the imaginative artistic creation of a gifted master weaver rather than one who followed a pre-existing design. The overall effect is unquestionably bold and striking. This carpet enhances both formal and more rustic  decorative schemes, and it works especially well in contemporary settings.","brand":"Stassfurt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48101136892096,"sku":"M1566","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0735\/7028\/7808\/files\/M15662_b22115b6-cc0d-4bb4-84ad-255d4c993dcf.jpg?v=1775196734","url":"https:\/\/locrugs.com\/products\/m1566-antique-red-persian-heriz-serapi-rug","provider":"locrugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
