On the Design:

Admirers of the craft will appreciate this early-20th century Persian Sarab rug as an especially archaic piece of art, exhibiting an old-world charm in its rustic, yet elegant design. A beige field underscores its marriage of medallion style and all-over field designs in both rich and vibrant colors, rendered using delicious natural dyes that have aged particularly beautifully. Warm tones of gold, brown, pink, red, and navy blue accent both the field medallions and intricate borders alike, and connoisseurs may further admire the subtle sense of movement that its color variations lend the geometry—a subdued, but intriguing departure from traditional area rugs of its period. It’s a fine play of rustic motifs in a reserved, sophisticated manner, and its gracious size offers vast design applications today.

Condition:

This antique Sarab rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin, and is ready for the floor. See less
