Old Sarough

There is only one rug like this one in rust red: it combines traditional craftsmanship with timeless elegance. The knot density of around 250,000 knots per m² makes the intricate workmanship visible – right down to the fine execution of the details. At 392 × 298 cm, it is in good hands as a rug for generously sized living spaces. It shows itself off just as well beneath a long dining table. Colouring and texture lend the room a homely atmosphere – with a character no other rug shares.

Origin

This rug comes from Sarough (also spelled Sarouk, Saruk or Sarogh). Sarough is one of the best-known rug-knotting regions in Iran. Located in the western Persian province of Aarak, it takes in the provenances Arak, Djozan, Ghiasabad, Mahal, Malayer, Mohajeran, Sultanabad and Wiss. Persian patterns of every kind are knotted in Sarough, in some cases to the buyer's own specifications. Weavers there are especially fond of the neighbouring Farahan designs, of their own Sultanabad patterns and of the so-called Mir-i-Boteh pattern made up of paisley motifs. Typical of this type of rug is the very good wool quality of the pile, as the new wool comes from the Persian highlands. The foundation – warp and weft – is, however, usually made of cotton. In old and antique rugs you will often find a blue weft thread. The knotting is very fine and the pile relatively high.

This Old Sarough is around 66 years old and a real collector's piece.

Material

The pile of this Old Sarough was hand-knotted from high-quality new wool. New wool is obtained by gently shearing sheep. New wool is a renewable, natural raw material with a number of impressive qualities: thanks to the natural lanolin content of the wool, the surface repels droplets of water and is therefore naturally protected against dirt. Wool also offers excellent thermal insulation, has a regulating effect on the indoor climate and dampens sound.

The weft and warp threads of this Old Sarough are made of cotton. This versatile material is tear-resistant and elastic, which makes it particularly well suited to a hard-wearing foundation.

Condition

This old Sarough has a story to tell. It was knotted in around 1960. It has been cleaned thoroughly and is in good, though only partly restored, condition. The condition of this rug is very good. Apart from one repaired area in a corner, where a fairly clear change in colour and pattern can be seen, this rug is outstandingly well preserved. We have not fully restored this old Sarough, because we feel it has a special presence just as it is. If you would like us to, we will of course carry on restoring the rug for you. We can bring almost any rug back to near-perfect condition.
