HOT ! Florian 6\'1\" x 4\'2\"

SIZE: 6.1 X 4.2 FT.ORIGIN: SAROUK FARAHAN PERSIACIRCA: 1930sMATERIAL: PURE WOOL

This antique Persian Sarouk Farahan rug is a superb example of late 19th-century craftsmanship. It blends the structural precision of Farahan weaving with the floral elegance characteristic of Sarouk design.

The rug features a striking elongated diamond-shaped medallion with pendants sharply outlined in rich reds set against a deep navy or black field densely filled with repeating boteh (paisley) motifs arranged in neat rhythmic rows. This repeating pattern gives the field a highly textured almost lace-like effect creating a balance between order and intricate detailing a hallmark of Farahan rugs.

The spandrels or corner sections are filled with beautifully drawn floral sprays more typical of Sarouk work, where soft vine blossoms and palmettes add a touch of fluidity and naturalism. The wide main border frames the piece with a meandering vine and rosette pattern in red ivory and deep blue tones, elegantly enclosing the highly patterned interior. Narrow guard borders with repeating floral elements provide additional layers of ornament and refinement.

Sarouk Farahan rugs are celebrated for their fine knotting, high-quality wool, and sophisticated colour palette of natural dyes, which mellow into a warm, glowing patina over time. This particular rug likely dates from the early 1900s, making it a collectable piece valued for its craftsmanship and artistic fusion of regional styles.
