Provenance: From a collection of a retired New York rug dealer

A finely proportioned antique Sarouk Farahan rug representing the accomplished nineteenth-century weaving traditions of central Persia.

Their designs frequently feature floral medallions, delicate vine systems and carefully balanced borders executed with clarity and restraint. The present rug’s compact format makes it particularly appealing to collectors. At the same time, its balanced proportions allow it to function effectively in an entrance, beside a bed, beneath a table, or as a wall-displayed textile. It's offered without reserve and is an accessible opportunity to acquire a collectible central Persian rug.
