About the Item
79124 Antique Red Persian Sarouk Rug, 13'06 x 19'05. Like an ancient Persian manuscript penned in wool and dyed in the colors of a thousand gardens, this hand-knotted antique Persian Sarouk rug tells a story steeped in history and beauty. From its resplendent red field, a cascade of intricate floral motifs blooms with lyrical rhythm—an echo of the weaver’s hand and heart. Each palmette and rosette unfurls with poetic grace, embodying centuries of artistic refinement from the heart of Persia, where weaving was not a craft but a divine calling.
The mesmerizing floral design allows for its allover pattern to take root and effloresce, forming a lush tableau of scrolling vines, delicate blossoms, and botanical flourishes. These motifs are not merely decorative—they carry with them the symbolic language of the Persian garden: the peony for power, the lotus for purity, the hyacinth for regeneration, and the tree of life for immortality. Together, they conjure a sacred orchard, an earthly paradise preserved in the embrace of richly dyed wool.
Enveloping the composition is a border of midnight navy blue tones, saturated with palmettes, stylized floral blossoms, and angular vines, lending the piece both structure and grandeur. The contrast between the glowing crimson field and the inky, jewel-toned border creates a visual symphony that draws the viewer into its rhythmic, almost musical, pulse. The fine weave and expertly balanced palette speak to the prowess of the artisans of Sarouk, who passed down their secrets like heirlooms through generations.
Woven circa the turn of the Early 20th Century, this expansive Sarouk rug embodies the poetic soul of Persian craftsmanship. Its rich wool pile, dyed with natural pigments and woven by skilled hands, retains a soft luminosity and a timeless elegance that only age and authenticity can bestow. Whether placed in a grand salon or cherished in a quiet study, this woven wonder will whisper the ancient verses of its homeland, enfolding any space in the serenity of a Persian garden dreamed into life.

Antique Persian Sarouk Area Rug
Located in New York, NY
Sarouk is a name of a village situated about 25 miles north of Arak (Sultanabad). This region became one of the most active regions of carpet weaving in the late 19th century through the early 20th century. The city's most famous designer was named Farahan. To be able to compete with Kashan in rug commerce, Farahan designed rugs with center medallion motives. Today, these carpets are referred to as Antique 19th century Farahan Sarouks.
In the 1920s and 1930s a well-known rug dealer in New York thought that Americans would buy rose-field carpets with blue borders and detached floral motives. During that period, a vast number of Sarouks with rose-fields and all over floral patterns were woven and exported to the American market. However, the natural dyed rose color did not stand up to the alkaline bath to which new rugs in Arak were subjected in the finishing process. The rose color faded radically. But instead of changing the finishing process or changing the composition of the dyes to stand up to alkali, New York merchants "solved" the problem by arming their staffs with synthetic dyes and little paint brushes with which they painted back in the rose-color in the entire fields of thousands and thousands of rugs and carpets over a period of 20 years. Today, Antique Sarouk rugs and carpets...
