About This Sarough
Where it comes from
This is a Sarough runner, 136 x 66 cm (4'6" x 2'2"), hand-knotted in Iran. Sarough weaving, from the villages around Arak, built its name on dense floral drawing over a warm mahogany or burgundy ground — the so-called classic Persian red. This piece sets that reputation aside, working instead in a deep indigo, an unusual choice for the type.
What you see
The eye meets a dark navy field, filled with small floral sprays in olive-green and gold, before settling on a vertical chain of salmon-pink medallions down the centre. Each is star-shaped rather than round, evenly spaced like beads on a thread, so the rug reads less as a single ornament and more as a sequence — a column rather than a medallion. A brick-red border, flanked by cream and ivory floral guard stripes, closes the composition firmly, its warmth the one nod to Sarough tradition.
How it was made
The pile is hand-spun wool, knotted onto a cotton warp at 201,000 to 250,000 knots per square metre — enough to hold the star medallions and the floral fillers in a clean, controlled line. Hand-spun yarn takes dye unevenly and carries no sheen, which is why the surface reads matte, and why the indigo ground sits deep rather than flat. At 12 mm the pile has real body underfoot, the density Sarough weaving is known for, carried through in this unusual colourway.
At home
This runner suits a hallway, a landing, or the floor beside a bed. The indigo ground holds its colour in a dark corridor, where paler rugs would fade into shadow, and the pink medallions give the eye something to follow along its length. Underfoot it is dense and firm, a new weave made for daily footsteps rather than careful ones. Passed each day, it is the pink that catches first, warming with the light.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 136 × 66 cm (0.90 m²) this is a small rug. It works beside a bed, in a reading corner, in front of a fireplace or as a mat by a door. It does not furnish a room; it makes a point in one.
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 0.90 m² that is roughly 180,000 to 220,000 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.
