Antique Persian Sarouk Rug, 6x9
This genuine, antique, hand-knotted Persian Sarouk carpet will breathe life into any indoor space with its warmth, elegance and gorgeous colors.
The somewhat whimsical, floral design is rendered in stunning shades of rose and blue, along with multiple shades of beige, rust, pink, and indigo.
Weavers in the town of Arak, Iran, diligently hand-knotted the rug c. 1930's.
The North American import firms color treated this rug, like most of the Sarouks imported during that time period, to modify the original shade of pink. Thus, this type of rug is known as an 'American Sarouk' or 'Painted Sarouk'.
In terms of condition, we hand washed the rug in July, 2024, and carefully stored it ever since. The colors and design show beautifully. The wool pile is in good condition, with only a bit of visible wear. The cotton foundation is cracking a bit, though, and we've made some stitched repairs along the edges.

I want you to see the rugs in your home to make sure you like them. In case you don't like them for any reason, I offer an easy return policy.
The 'grace period' for returns depends on how you bought the rugs -

You may ship the rug back to me, or drop it off locally by appointment. I will issue a refund for the purchase price, provided that I receive the returned rug within the grace period explained above.

I will expect to receive the returned rug in the same condition that I sent it to you. Please make sure that the rug is dry, not damp or wet. Please do not apply any adhesive tape to the front or back of the rug. I will assess any damage on a case-by-case basis, and subtract the value of the damage from your refund.
