Sarouk / 12612

An elegant Sarouk in wool, this antique rug measures 3' 5" x 5' 0" and reads as a tightly scaled floral lattice rendered in deep blue and coral red with cream highlights. Mirrored palmettes and scrolling vine fillers organize the saturated field, while narrow floral guards and a wider patterned border frame the composition. Surface wear is low and the pile remains soft to the touch; colors retain a hand-aged glow with subtle abrash across the field. Tactile and quietly formal, the piece reveals the poise of time and careful craft. Circa 1915 - 1930
