Adorned with a captivating floral pattern and a central medallion, the carpet boasts a palette of the most enchanting colors in the world.

Renowned for their robust construction and understated, all-over patterns, antique Feraghan carpets and rugs continue to be highly sought after by connoisseurs of fine textiles. This particular piece, with its vegetable-dyed threads, is not only a visual delight but also a testament to the enduring quality of its craftsmanship.
Rest assured, this antique Feraghan Sarouk carpet is not just a decorative accent; it is a living testament to a bygone era, a piece of art that encapsulates the elegance and craftsmanship of Persian rug weaving. Meticulously maintained and professionally cleaned, it stands as a beacon of beauty, ready to grace any space with its timeless charm.
