Description
Serab

This town on the edge of the Heriz area in Northwest Iran now almost exclusively weave runners in a restricted design range with a major use of camel tones in both field and border. This style and formality can be traced continuously back almost 200 years. Thus 19th century pieces can easily be chronologically located. Older pieces are all wool, but more modern rugs are on a cotton foundation. The pile is of high quality wool, compact. Turkish knotted and long wearing. Serab runners are among the worst recognizable and popular of Persian rugs.
