Antique Sarouk Rug, Origin: Persia, Circa: 1900 – Palmettes, flowers, and sinuous vines wend their way in profusion across the rich red field of this luscious antique Sarouk. The design is carefully controlled in its layout and symmetry despite its dynamic freedom and exuberance. The field elements reappear in the main border as a continuous vine scroll, but set against a blue ground in framing contrast to the field. The meticulous drawing and uniform design texture create a harmonious decorative effect despite the richness of the color and complexity of the ornament.
