About This Sarough
Where it comes from
A Sarouk, also written Sarough, one of the classic weaving types of west-central Iran, in a generous 316 x 209 cm (10'4" x 6'10"). The type is prized for dense floral patterns, knotted firmly and drawn with elegance, traditionally set on the warm brick-red ground that gave the style its name. This piece departs from that convention, casting its florals against a deep navy field.
What you see
At first glance the navy ground carries a dense, all-over scrollwork of florals: salmon-pink and dusty rose blossoms, steel-blue and sage leaves, mustard-gold accents, all moving in the tight, repeating rhythm typical of the Mahi pattern. A small star-shaped medallion sits at the centre, its brick red barely raised above the surrounding field, more a quiet anchor than a focal point. The wide brick-red border, patterned with a cream scrolling vine, closes the composition, held in by narrow cream and navy guard stripes.
How it was made
Every knot here was tied by hand, wool on a cotton warp, at 201,000 to 250,000 knots per square metre, firm enough to hold the curl of each leaf and petal without blurring into the next. The pile is kept low, at 12 millimetres, so the drawing reads crisply rather than softening under a deep nap. Over the piece's forty to sixty years, the hand-spun wool has taken on a light sheen that gives the navy its depth and the reds their glow.
At home
This size suits a dining table or a living room seating group. The navy ground holds its own against dark wood and warms a pale floor into deep relief. Underfoot the wool is dense and firm, made for daily use. Watch how the light finds the small central medallion, glowing quietly within the field around it.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 316 × 209 cm (6.60 m²) this is a large rug. It sits under a seating group with the front legs of sofa and chairs on it, or under a dining table for four. A table for six wants about 80 cm of clearance all round, and needs more.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 201,000 to 250,000 knots per square metre; across 6.60 m² that is roughly 1.3 to 1.7 million individual knots, every one of them tied by hand.
How do I care for this rug?
Hand-spun wool still carries its own lanolin, which keeps liquid sitting on the surface for a moment: blot quickly, with clear water and a light cloth, working inwards and without rubbing. Otherwise regular vacuuming along the pile is enough. Turn the rug once or twice a year so light and footfall reach it evenly.
