This antique Persian Sarouk rug measures 3' 8" x 5' and showcases a richly detailed floral medallion centered on a midnight blue field, framed by intricate scrolling vines and vibrant corner spandrels. The rug’s red border enhances its classical symmetry, while the fine weave—measuring approximately 180 KPSI—speaks to the high level of craftsmanship. With its tightly knotted wool pile and refined drawing, this piece is both decorative and enduring, suitable for a small study, entryway, or any refined interior.
About Sarouk Rugs
Sarouk rugs are among the most recognized and enduring Persian rug styles, especially prized for their durability and their elegant curvilinear floral designs. Produced primarily in central Iran during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Sarouks became especially popular in Western markets, with many woven to cater to American tastes. These rugs often feature rich, saturated colors and a central medallion or overall pattern, with heavy, high-quality wool that holds up remarkably well over time.
