A traditional Serapi tribal style runner rug, hand-knotted from wool in Afghanistan. It features a classic geometric and nomadic design aesthetic with a rich, balanced color palette. The long rectangular body features an ivory/cream backdrop, serving as a bright foundation for stacked, repeating geometric medallions and stylized botanical motifs. The center showcases stylized tribal figures, expanding palmettes, and geometric anchors rendered in rich tones of rust-red, navy, cerulean blue, golden-yellow, and dark brown accents. The field is framed by a bold, wide rust-red main border filled with continuous repeating geometric flowerheads and vine-scrolls. This is flanked by narrow decorative guard bands featuring intricate cross-hatching and ribboning patterns.
