Antique Sarouk Persian Rug 200 × 134 cm, Wool

Overview

A Sarouk from Iran, measuring 200 × 134 cm. That is roughly 2.68 m² of floor, about 6.6' × 4.4'. Sarouk rugs are known for dense knotting and floral motifs.

Materials and construction

The pile is wool, on a warp of cotton. It is entirely hand-knotted. Weight is given as approx. 10 kg.

Format and use

The rug is rectangular. A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². In the mid range the pattern stays clearly legible without making the rug delicate.

How it reads

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

Age and condition

Stated age: antique. In a rug of this age, patina and some pile loss belong to the picture.
