Immerse your home in the romance of Persian design with an exquisite Sarouk interpretation. Famous for its expressive botanical arrangements, this hand-knotted rug pairs stylized tree-of-life motifs and curving floral sprays against a dark blue canvas. Woven from premier New Zealand wool using a high-sheen process, this rug possesses the velvety, light-reflecting brilliance of 100% pure silk. Hand-knotted to perfection with ultra-soft wool, its high-luster finish ensures the intricate floral detail gleams softly from every vantage point.
*Note: The color of your rug may appear slightly different in person than it does on screen. This happens because device displays tend to oversaturate color, and because the pile's height causes it to catch and reflect light differently depending on the direction it's brushed, which can shift how a shade looks from one angle to the next. We've done our best to photograph this rug in a way that reflects its true tone, and we'd recommend watching the video below for a more accurate sense of its colors before you order. If you're still unsure, feel free to give us a call and we're happy to walk you through it.

Story Behind the Art: Within the rug trade, the term Sarouk encompasses pieces woven in Arak, its surrounding villages, and the plains of Farahan in central Iran—an area long celebrated for its weaving excellence. In the 19th century, Sarouk rugs often displayed intricate allover designs such as the Herati and Gul Hennai, rendered with around 100 asymmetric knots per square inch on sturdy cotton foundations. By the late 1800s, inspired by the grandeur of Tabriz carpets, local weavers embraced a more formal aesthetic, producing factory-made rugs with central floral medallions and precise symmetry. This medallion style prevailed until the years following World War I, when Sarouk artisans pioneered a more open composition: graceful, detached floral sprays scattered elegantly across the field. This innovation became the defining hallmark of the Sarouk tradition, captivating global markets and collectors alike. Today, the influence of this design endures, with Sarouk-inspired rugs woven not only in Iran but also in India, Romania, and Pakistan—each echoing the enduring beauty and legacy of Persian artistry.
