This antique Persian Sarouk Farahan rug displays a repeating allover pattern of intricate floral motifs arranged in horizontal rows. The design features small geometric flowers and leaves in a dense layout, typical of 19th to early 20th century pieces from the Farahan region near Arak. The terracotta field provides a warm base, framed by a navy border with contrasting geometric elements.

Sarouk Farahan rugs are known for their fine asymmetrical knotting and tight weave, which gives them a firm, durable texture. They often blend classical Persian floral elements with a slightly freer, regional style. This example shows good age-appropriate fading, adding character while maintaining strong colors from natural dyes.

These rugs work well in smaller rooms, entryways, or as accent pieces under coffee tables. Their sturdy construction makes them suitable for moderate foot traffic. The allover pattern offers visual interest without overwhelming the space, and the rich terracotta tone pairs nicely with both traditional and modern furniture.
