Farahan Sarouk / 10126

An elegant Farahan Sarouk in wool, this antique rug carries a refined central medallion set into an allover floral and vine ground. The 8' 5" x 12' 4" proportion favors a quiet, neutral palette of brown, cream and white that has mellowed with time. Surface wear and subtle abrash animate the field, softening some details while leaving the medallion and borders clearly legible. The overall effect is a layered, tactile patina where botanical motifs read with calm restraint. Circa 1905 - 1935. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
