About the Item

This 19th century oversized Persian Farahan Sarouk rug is a majestic example of classical Persian weaving, inspired by the iconic 16th- and 17th-century Kerman "Vase" and "Vine-Scroll & Palmette" designs. With its mansion-sized scale and richly detailed allover floral pattern, this rug is a rare and distinguished collector's piece. Set against a deep, luxurious navy field, the design features flowing vine-scrolls and grand palmettes in a harmonious palette of pink, red, green, blue, and yellow, creating a composition that is both dynamic and balanced. The primary border, rendered in a vibrant red, is flanked by elegant minor borders in gold and light blue, enhancing the overall symmetry and sophistication of the piece. Woven with exceptionally soft, lustrous wool, the rug exudes richness and visual brilliance. While it has a very short pile and shows signs of age-related wear, the intricate design and exquisite coloration remain beautifully preserved—speaking to the enduring craftsmanship and artistic legacy of Persian Farahan rugs. Ideal for grand interiors, galleries, or discerning collectors, this oversized Farahan Sarouk is a remarkable blend of historical elegance and timeless artistry.

Vintage Persian Yazd Room Size Rug in Allover Floral Pattern in Navy, Blue, Red
Located in Barrington, IL
Magnificent Early 20th Century Vintage Persian Yazd Room Size Rug, meticulously hand-knotted circa the early 1900s. Yazd rugs are admired for their fine craftsmanship and often feature designs that pay homage to earlier, revered Persian weaving traditions. This exceptional rug showcases a truly beautiful and very unique large format allover floral pattern, reminiscent of the grand designs found in 16th and 17th Century Persian Kerman rugs. The intricate motifs are set against a captivating abrash blue color field, where subtle, natural variations in tone (abrash) add immense depth, character, and a sense of organic aging, highlighting the rug's exquisite texture. The vibrant color palette includes a sophisticated blend of deep navy, serene blue, classic red, creamy ivory, and warm tan, all harmoniously intertwining to bring the intricate floral design to life. The entire composition is expertly framed by a striking dark navy blue border, adorned with equally beautiful large format designs that perfectly enclose the rug and enhance its regal appearance. A testament to its superior quality, this Persian Yazd rug boasts a very tight weave with a high knot density, ensuring exceptional durability and preserving the intricate details of its pattern for generations to come.
