Farahan Sarouk / 14838

This Farahan Sarouk antique rug in wool measures 315 x 442 cm and reflects the measured elegance associated with the type. A rich red field is set against navy, ivory, and gold accents, with a central medallion, floral scatter, and formal corner spandrels creating a composed, layered surface. The border carries a dense rhythm of palmettes and scrolling detail, adding structure around the field. Circa 1900 - 1920, it presents low distress, with softened wear and a quietly timeworn character that preserves its clarity. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
