Farahan Sarouk / 10775

This Farahan Sarouk is worked in wool with a deep neutral field enlivened by warm red and gold highlights. A dense allover vine and palmette composition unfolds symmetrically, punctuated by mirrored floral medallettes and a narrow red floral border that remains crisp despite soft, even wear. The 6' 6" x 10' 0" scale preserves pattern clarity while a subtle mellowing of tones gives the surface tactile depth and quiet age. Circa 1900 - 1920, this antique rug reads as a measured object of craft, its restrained palette and low distress speaking to long-lived use and careful stewardship.
