Antique Large Sarouk Persian Floral Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of a Sarouk weaving represents the height of early 20th-century Persian textile artistry. Its substantial dimensions classify it as a truly large rug, capable of anchoring a grand reception room or formal dining space with undeniable presence. The central field is dominated by a rare and tranquil seafoam hue, a sophisticated deviation from the typical Sarouk palette. This soft, muted base allows the intricate, repeating boteh and vine motifs to emerge in rich counterpoint colors, including deep terracotta, saffron, and indigo. For collectors seeking specific palettes, this piece stands out among exceptional green color rugs. Sarouk rugs are celebrated for their dense knotting and enduring quality, attributes clearly visible in this piece's robust handle.
