Woven in the Farahan region of western Iran, Sarouk Farahans are prized for their refined design, high-quality wool, and masterful craftsmanship—often woven by some of the most skilled artisans in the region. This piece features a bold all-over mirrored floral and scrolling vine pattern, with beautifully stylized blossoms rendered in vivid indigos, corals, pinks, and creams. The scale of the design gives it both presence and grace, with each element carefully mirrored to create visual harmony. The wide border is just as captivating, with large-scale flowers and curling vines in the same rich palette, framed by multiple guard bands. A true collector’s piece, this rug offers the elegance of classical Persian design with the unmistakable vibrancy and individuality of Farahan weaving. A timeless foundation for any well-considered room. See less
