Description

This Saruk rug is a work of intricate craftsmanship reflecting the storied artisanship of Persian textile traditions.

The handwoven piece is available in the elegant dimensions of 12'0" x 21'5".

Saruk rugs were produced in Saruk, Arak, and the surrounding countryside in the Markazi Province of Iran. For much of the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s, rugs exported from Iran to the USA were dyed to a desirable, deep, raspberry red color, since Americans had an affinity for the curvilinear and floral designs, but not the color. Saruk rugs continue to be produced today, using the same methods as during early production, with the exception of the post-production dye job.
