It shows various signs of abrash and other imperfections, but this only adds to its presence.

This mid 19th-century Persian Fereghan Sarouk village rug is woven from wool and cotton. The piece displays a traditional design originating from Arak, featuring a large jewel-shaped terracotta central medallion set against a dark navy field, which is surrounded by detailed floral spandrels and a complex floral border. The saturated colour palette includes shades of terracotta, dark indigo, pink, blue, green, and tan, filled with interconnected vines, leaves, and flower heads. Visible signs of age and condition include a low pile, worn areas, scattered repairs, and abrash across the surface. The rug measures 205 cm high by 135 cm wide. This textile fits naturally into an English Country House interior as a floor covering in a living room, study, or hallway to bring warmth and traditional pattern to the space.

FAQs

Fereghan Sarouk rugs originate from the Arak region of central Persia, crafted predominantly during the nineteenth century. They are known for combining botanical motifs, natural vegetable dyes, fine wool pile, and structured medallion designs.

These rugs were woven using hand-spun wool knotted onto a durable cotton warp and weft foundation. Artisans employed natural dyes derived from madder root, indigo, walnut husks, and pomegranate rinds to produce their rich colour palettes.

Authentic examples feature asymmetrical Persian knots, soft colour tones with natural abrash shade variations, and a dense wool pile with a flexible feel. The reverse side shows clear, precise knotting consistent with hand weaving.

A traditional patterned rug anchors contemporary rooms by providing texture, depth, and geometric interest. It contrasts effectively with clean-lined modern furniture, timber floorboards, or neutral upholstery schemes.

Vacuum gently using suction only to avoid catching or damaging delicate pile fibres. Rotate the carpet periodically to ensure even wear and light exposure, and use specialist professional cleaning services when deep cleaning is required.
