Antique Sarouk Persian Rug 43880

Antique Sarouk, Persia, early twentieth centuryRich sprays of flowering branches and palmettes repeat in allover symmetry across the soft salmon-gold field of this exuberant antique Sarouk. The same elements are re-arranged to make up the main border, but set against a dark ground for framing contrast, while minor borders offer a transition between the coloration of the field and border. The lush and lustrous pile accentuates the luxurious effects of the design and color.
