I have been in this business for more than 3 decades , without a debut I can say that I never came cross an antique Sepai more than a century plus old to be in perfect condition until i found this. This came out from a huge mansion , which was sold at $65,000,000.00 in Beverly Hills, estate of Erika & Robert Brunson, you can see the picture of mansion. If I wanted to grade this rug from scale of 1 to 10 ten being best, it will get 10 in every category. I do not think I could find another one after this especially at this size. This beauty measures 15' x 25'-9". How many genuine antique Serapi at this ize is out there? I assure you not many. Another thing  that I must mention, usually pictures cannot justify for the true beauty of the rug, one thing , I can say, if you believe that this is a gorgeous piece, just wait and see it in real life, it could be 1o times more beautiful that the pictures. If you wanted to buy something like this from a retailer, you had to pay easily six figures because is in huge size, awesome quality, phenomenal & well balanced color combination & of course, its pattern but here you can save tens of thousand dollars because you are buying it from first hand at price of $47,499.00.
