Sarab

This one-of-a-kind piece in rust red combines traditional craftsmanship with timeless elegance. With a knot density of approx. 420,000 knots per m², the elaborate workmanship shows above all in the precise drawing of the design and the fine execution of the details. At 360 × 260 cm it works beautifully as a large living-room rug. The harmonious colouring and the characteristic texture lend any room an exclusive, homely atmosphere. A rug of this quality is far more than a piece of furnishing – it is a piece of traditional textile art with a character of its own and lasting value.

Origin

The rug region of Sarab borders the district of Tabriz to the west and Ardebil to the east. The small town of Sarab thus lies right in the middle of one of Iran's largest rug-knotting areas. The famous and refined Serapi rugs are knotted in the town of Sarab. Knotted with Turkish knots, Sarab rugs are distinguished by a firm knot, a double weft thread and a dense wool pile. As its primary ornament, the typical Sarab pattern usually features a hexagon that repeats several times and is often interrupted by a diamond.

Material

The pile of this Sarab was hand-knotted from high-quality new wool. New wool is obtained by gently shearing sheep. It is a renewable, natural raw material with a whole range of impressive properties: thanks to the wool's natural lanolin content, the surface repels droplets of water and is naturally protected against dirt. Wool also provides excellent thermal insulation, has a balancing effect on the indoor climate and absorbs sound.

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

Condition

This Sarab has a story to tell. The edges are damaged in places. It was knotted around 36. We have cleaned it thoroughly and restored it with great care. That is why it is – despite its age – in very good condition.
