Sarouk Farahan Persian Rug 345 × 227 cm in Wool, hand-knotted

The piece in short

Origin Iran, format 345 × 227 cm — a Farahan, Sarouk made entirely by hand. That is roughly 7.83 m² of floor, about 11.3' × 7.4'. Sarouk rugs are known for dense knotting and floral motifs.

What it is made of

The pile is Handgesponnene Wolle, on a warp of cotton. Construction method: hand-knotted. Weight is given as ap. 28 kg.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. A large format for open-plan rooms or formal reception spaces.

Fineness of the knotting

The stated knot density is 300,000–399,999 knots/m². At this density even small-scale motifs can be worked out cleanly.

Colour and appearance

Colour is recorded as red and orange. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
