Saroukh carpets originate from the village of Saroukh and surrounding areas in the Markazi province of Iran, renowned for producing exceptionally durable and finely knotted rugs since the late 19th century.

These pieces are traditionally hand-knotted using a sturdy cotton foundation for the warp and weft, combined with high-quality local wool for a dense, resilient pile.

Authentic pieces feature asymmetrical knots, vegetable-dyed wool with characteristic subtle colour variations, and often a distinctive dense weave that feels heavy and pliable.

Such textiles anchor contemporary spaces by introducing rich textures, traditional motifs, and grounding warmth against minimalist or neutral architectural backdrops.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without beater bars, professional cleaning by specialists in antique textiles, and protection from direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent fading.
