Antique Sarouk, Persia, late nineteenth century. This room-size antique Sarouk carpet is quite unusual among rugs of its kind. Here a scalloped ivory ground medallion sits within a rich red field surrounded by cornerpieces in blue, ivory, and green. The entire composition is brimming with flowering vines and botehs like a fine Kashmir shawl. The soft green spiral vinescroll border set on an ivory ground is the epitome of elegance, providing the ideal frame for the design and palette of the field.
