Description
Farahan Sarouk rugs are woven in the village of Sarouk in Iran, but these carpets are given the name “Farahan” as a distinction for their exceptional type of Sarouks.
The medallion design customary on so-called Sarouk Farahans is classically Persian, as is all the minor detail, but the drawing is an interesting combination of suave curve-linearity and geometric styles.
Sarouk Farahan carpets exhibit rich colors, often a red field, deep indigo accents and subtle shades of green. Farahan rugs are of a finer weave than other types of Sultanabad rugs, with delicately executed motifs.
