Farahan Rugs

The fine Persian Farahan (or Feraghan) rugs, particularly the “Sarouk-Farahan” variants, were the darlings of the 19th-century elite in Europe and America. Known for their sophisticated “Herati” (water lily) all-over patterns and deep, luminous indigo fields, they embody “Old World” intellectualism.

They are often thinner and more finely woven than standard Sarouks, making them feel like a piece of fine fabric. A Farahan rug is the definitive “gentleman’s rug,” perfect for a home office, library, or formal parlor.

Farahan rugs, originating from the historic Arak region of Persia, are celebrated for their refined structure and masterful weaving techniques. These exceptional antiques often feature stunning, organized fields, ranging from continuous allover designs to highly refined intricate floral patterns.
