SOLD - Mohajeran Sarouk, 8x11
SOLD
This genuine, antique, room-size Persian carpet will breathe life into any large indoor space with its warmth, elegance and gorgeous, vegetable dye colors.
The floral design of the rug harmoniously balances rich details with open space. It is intriguing, but not busy. The allover pattern offers a very versatile base for decorating and furniture layout, more so than rugs with dominant central medallions.
The main field color is a stunning rust red. The main border color is indigo. Other colors include varied shades of blue, brown, beige and salmon.
The wool pile of the rug is lustrous and nearly luminescent. This rare quality is found particularly in Mohajeran Sarouk Persian rugs, like this one. Weavers in the 1920's and earlier diligently hand-knotted these rugs in the region of Arak, Iran. This piece was likely created during the last decade of production, c. 1920's.
As for condition, I recently hand washed the rug, and stored it carefully afterwards. The colors and design show beautifully. The wool pile is in good shape, given the rug's age, but a few spots show some wear. We made a number of hand sewn repairs, particularly along the edges of the rug. Please see the photos and video.
