An extraordinary late 19th-century Persian Bakhshaish Serapi rug, woven with an incredible balance of tribal artistry and refined elegance. At its heart, a striking, large-scale floral medallion anchors the composition, its bold tribal motifs radiating outward into a field of beautifully stylized floral clusters. The design is both structured and free-flowing, a hallmark of Bakhshaish weaving, where Persian tradition meets a more organic, village-woven aesthetic. The border is equally remarkable, featuring a repeating stylized floral pattern interwoven with geometric and tribal elements, adding rhythm and movement to the composition. Rendered in a luminous palette of pale pinks, soft creams, deep indigos, warm browns, and rich golds, the colors feel both timeless and inviting. Known for their durability and artistic expression, Bakhshaish Serapi rugs are highly sought after, and this piece is a particularly stunning example—a true statement of craftsmanship, history, and beauty for any interior.
