Serapi is a trade name used to refer to the very best Heriz carpets of a certain grade that share vital features. We can see them all here including the fine weave with crispness of design, the reliance on soft colors and the booming cheer of the dye materials. The usage of the sky blue in silhouetting the medallion and linking various parts of the field together is quite skillful and attractive. Added decorative charm is gained from the absence of the corner elements.
