1960's Persian Sarouk Carpet with Traditional Style

About the Item

78229 Vintage Persian Sarouk Rug, 10'03 x 13'09. Bathed in the gentle radiance of a warm ivory-beige ground, this hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Sarouk rug reveals a composition that radiates both refinement and exuberance. Woven in the heart of Iran’s Markazi Province, its design unfolds with the precision of a courtly manuscript, centered around a majestic medallion that blossoms like a celestial garden. Enveloped in emerald vines and ruby-toned petals, the central motif pulses with delicate rosettes and intricate scrollwork, anchored by ornate pendants that stretch vertically in harmonious symmetry. Each bloom appears meticulously placed, as though whispered into the loom by memory and devotion. The field, serene and expansive, functions as a luminous canvas, allowing the floral bouquets to rise with lyricism and grace. Arranged in a balanced constellation around the medallion, the botanical motifs include unfurling peonies—symbols of power and honor—alongside carnation buds and stylized lotus blossoms, each carrying ancient meanings of resilience and spiritual enlightenment. The four quadrants of the field are guarded by elaborately wrought corner spandrels, their deeply saturated navy and crimson forms swirling with vine tendrils, palmettes, and trefoil motifs, bringing depth and drama to the otherwise tranquil ground. Framing this floral reverie is a radiant border of mesmerizing complexity. The main border unfurls in a series of repeating palmettes and rose bouquets linked by angular vinery, flanked by narrow guard stripes teeming with boteh motifs and pearl-like blossoms. This architectural framing device not only encloses the design but enhances its grandeur, drawing the eye inward toward the intricate serenity of the inner field. The crisp delineation between ground and ornament, common in Sarouk rugs of the mid-20th century, speaks to both technical mastery and aesthetic clarity. With its regal palette of ivory-beige, pomegranate red, jade green, and midnight blue, this vintage Sarouk is both opulent and composed, a testament to the enduring legacy of Persian artistry. It embodies the cultural values of abundance, beauty, and order that defined Iran’s classical weaving tradition. Far more than a floor covering, it is a woven ode to nature’s divine symmetry—inviting all who behold it to linger in its garden of eternal spring. Rendered in variegated shades of beige, ruby red, red raspberry, pink, sky blue, green, rose, navy blue, and gold with other accent colors. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 10'03 x 13'09. Date: 1960's. Mid-20th Century.
