Persian Sarough, Wool Hand Knotted Area Rug, 170 cm x 240 cm, Red Cream

This antique, finely hand-knotted Sarough rug is exemplary of the high quality that is produced in this small village in the Arak region. It has been inspected and cared for by our experts to guarantee its beautiful condition. This antique rug demonstrates the precious durability of Sarough rugs. It is a real investment, as old Sarough rugs are a rarity and are very rarely woven in this way.

Traditionally hand-knotted rugs still form the highest quality standard among all types of rugs. Depending on the type of knot, the rugs are extremely robust and can last for generations. The finer and tighter a rug is knotted, the more detailed ornaments and patterns can be depicted on the pile. At the same time, a very fine oriental rug requires a much higher manual effort as well as a higher level of experience and skill of the knotter. Thus the knot density also serves as a decisive value factor of hand-knotted rugs. The quality is not directly related to the knot density. A rather coarse rug may well have been made in excellent quality.
