By the early twentieth century, Sarouk had established itself as a benchmark for dense, lustrous wool and disciplined floral composition. Pieces from the 1920s are now over a century old; the wool has settled, the natural dyes have deepened, and the surface has gained the layered depth that distinguishes a genuine antique from a younger piece washed to look older.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Sarouk is hand-knotted in wool on a cotton foundation. The composition is the classical Sarouk vocabulary, read here through a palette of rust, brown and blue — the rust carrying the field with its botanical motifs, brown anchoring the medallion and border, blue running through the secondary elements as a cooler counterpoint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#8b0000;font-size:1.15rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;margin-top:35px;\"\u003eComposition and Palette\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sarouk floral repertoire is dense without being busy — stylised palmettes, curling vines and botanical motifs are arranged with a clarity that comes from disciplined workshop production. Rust as the dominant field tone is the classical Sarouk register: warm without being aggressive, deep without losing legibility. The blue accents through the borders give the composition its breathing space, and the brown contour holds everything together as architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#8b0000;font-size:1.15rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;margin-top:35px;\"\u003ePlacement\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 186 × 365 cm this is a generous long format — anchoring a long dining table with chairs pulled back, running the length of a large hallway or grand corridor, or organising an open-plan living space as a horizontal field. Antique Sarouk wool is famously robust; the piece has already proven its durability over a century and will hold up to everyday use. Use a non-slip pad on smooth flooring; suitable above underfloor heating. The rust-brown-blue palette works particularly well in traditional, library, or stately interiors where its depth supports darker wood, leather and brass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#8b0000;font-size:1.15rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;margin-top:35px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin:15px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;width:35%;color:#666;\"\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e186 × 365 cm (6 × 12 ft)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;color:#666;\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eSarouk (Arak region), Iran\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;color:#666;\"\u003ePile material\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003e100 % wool\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;color:#666;\"\u003eFoundation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eCotton warp and weft\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;color:#666;\"\u003eDesign\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eClassical Sarouk floral composition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;color:#666;\"\u003eColours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eRust field, brown medallion and border, blue accents\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;color:#666;\"\u003eAge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eAntique, c. 1920s (over 100 years), good antique condition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;color:#666;\"\u003eUnderfloor heating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border-bottom:1px solid #eee;\"\u003eSuitable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#8b0000;font-size:1.15rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;margin-top:35px;\"\u003e1stDibs Recognised Dealer · Spencer (2021)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDjoharian carries the \u003cstrong\u003eRecognised Dealer\u003c\/strong\u003e badge on 1stDibs since 2013, with a 5.0\/5 verified rating.
