This Farahan Sarouk antique rug, measuring 269 x 381 cm, unfolds in red, gold, navy, and teal, with an abundant floral border enclosing a field of intricate, closely worked ornament. The central medallion is rich yet measured, set among scrolling vine forms, small blossoms, and layered motifs that give the composition its enduring structure. Circa 1890 - 1910, it shows low distress, softened colour, and the kind of gentle wear that lends the wool a quietly tactile presence. The overall effect is a finely aged antique rug with depth, warmth, and a composed decorative cadence.
