This piece follows the elegant Seraband tradition, characterized by its rhythmic, all-over "Boteh" (seed or paisley) motif set against a rich, classic ground.

This rug captures the transition between traditional Persian influence and mid-century Indian craftsmanship. The color palette is wonderfully aged, featuring muted earthy tones and deep indigos that have softened beautifully over the decades.

Texture: The wool is soft and aged, providing a low-profile feel that is perfect for areas where door clearance is a concern. Design: A mesmerizing repeat pattern of tiny Boteh motifs, framed by multiple intricate borders that give the piece a very tailored, architectural look.
