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.
