This Farahan Sarouk antique rug, 533 x 818 cm, presents a richly detailed field of small floral motifs, a balanced central medallion, and a border composed of rosettes and cartouche-like forms. Deep red sits alongside brown, ivory, and muted blue accents, creating a warm, grounded palette with clear age and softness. Woven in wool, it shows low distress, with gentle wear and tonal variation that add depth to the surface rather than interrupting it. Circa 1885 - 1900, the rug feels formal yet lived-in, with an intricate rhythm that carries across the full scale of the composition.
