Made with hand-knotted wool circa 1890-1910, this 3x18 antique Serab extra-long runner enjoys a classic geometric medallion design set within an elongated field, an elegant and collectible example of tribal village weaving from northwestern and a distinctive curation from Rug & Kilim.On the Design:Admirers of village weaving will appreciate this turn-of-the-century Serab runner as a particularly expressive example of tribal geometric design. An ivory field hosts a sequence of angular diamond medallions arranged along the runner’s central axis, creating a strong sense of rhythm and balance across its elongated format, a hallmark of Serab rugs woven for corridor and gallery spaces. These medallions are connected by stylized linear elements and smaller geometric motifs that lend continuity to the composition, while a finely detailed lattice-like ground pattern enriches the field with subtle texture. Surrounding the design is a series of tribal borders featuring repeating geometric guard motifs, framing the central field with a structured yet decorative presence that enhances the rug’s architectural character. Warm tones of camel, terracotta red, soft coral, and muted blues accent the medallions and borders alike, set against the ivory ground in a palette typical of Serab weaving traditions. Connoisseurs may especially admire the nuanced variation in these natural dyes, whose gentle abrash lends a subtle sense of movement and depth throughout the piece. The result is a beautiful balance of rustic tribal charm and refined geometric composition, making this antique runner both visually striking and versatile for modern interiors.Condition:This antique Sarab runner further enjoys good condition for its age and origin, and is ready for the floor.
