The Story
About this Sarouk Rug
This antique Persian Sarouk rug measures approximately 9x12 and features an ornate central medallion framed by flowing boteh (paisley) motifs and a deeply saturated navy floral border. The field is rendered in a soft, oxidized red, flanked by ivory-toned spandrels that create dramatic contrast and balance. The interplay of curved floral vines and boteh forms gives the composition a sense of movement and depth, while the navy corners anchor the overall design. With its rich palette and 1920s-era craftsmanship, this Sarouk rug stands as a graceful, enduring statement for a formal living room or refined interior.
About Sarouk Rugs
Sarouk rugs are among the most celebrated Persian carpets, known for their dense, velvety wool and resilient construction. Woven primarily in the Arak region, antique Sarouks from the early 20th century are prized for their ability to balance rich, saturated dyes with harmonious floral arrangements. These rugs often feature central medallions or allover sprays of rosettes, framed by intricate borders. Their fine knotting and elegant style have made them highly sought after in Western markets for over a century, especially in room-size formats like this one.
