About the Item

79081 Antique Persian Sarouk Pictorial Rug, 02'07 x 05'02. This hand-knotted wool antique Persian Sarouk pictorial rug is a magnificent example of the Garden of Paradise design, embodying the beauty and symbolism deeply rooted in Persian art and culture. The vibrant red field serves as a lush canvas, teeming with life and adorned with an array of intricate motifs that capture the essence of an earthly paradise. Birds, butterflies, fruits, and flowers come together in a harmonious tapestry that reflects both the artistic mastery and spiritual traditions of Persian weavers. Central to the design are three distinct types of birds perched gracefully amidst blooming flowers and leafy branches. These birds, likely songbirds and pheasants, represent joy, freedom, and fertility, adding a lively narrative to the composition. Butterflies flutter delicately across the scene, symbolizing grace, transformation, and romantic bliss. Together, these motifs create a sense of vibrancy and movement, as if the garden is alive and flourishing in perpetual spring. The floral motifs add layers of depth and symbolism to this enchanting piece. The presence of peonies denotes power and wealth, while lotus blossoms symbolize purity and enlightenment. The hyacinths suggest regeneration and beauty, and the tree of life, depicted with branches laden with fruits like apples and pears, represents immortality and spiritual growth. These motifs, woven with precision, embody the Persian tradition of imbuing rugs with both aesthetic and symbolic meaning, transforming this rug into a celebration of life, renewal, and abundance. The Persian rug’s intricate botanical border frames the scene with elegance, featuring scrolling floral vines and blossoms that complement the central design. The navy blue background of the border enhances the vibrancy of the red field, creating a striking contrast that emphasizes the meticulous detail of each design element. This framing not only anchors the composition but also amplifies the sense of depth and structure, a hallmark of Sarouk craftsmanship. This antique Persian Sarouk pictorial rug is more than just a decorative piece—it is a window into the Persian vision of paradise. Its masterful design, rich symbolism, and exceptional craftsmanship make it a timeless treasure. Whether displayed as a statement piece in a grand foyer or cherished as an heirloom, this woven wonder brings warmth, history, and an unparalleled sense of artistry to nearly any space. It is a true testament to the enduring legacy of Persian weaving traditions, captivating all who encounter its beauty. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 02'07 x 05'02.
