5'7 x 8 Navy Blue Persian Sarough Kork Rug

This 5'7 x 8 Navy Blue Persian Sarough Kork Rug is a refined example of classic Sarough weaving, distinguished by its deep navy field, elegant floral composition, and fine kork wool pile. The rug presents a balanced and harmonious design, making it an excellent choice for formal living spaces, studies, or curated interiors seeking traditional Persian artistry.

Design and Motifs

The design features a traditional Sarough allover floral layout, built from interconnected palmettes, rosettes, flowering vines, and subtle arabesques. The motifs are evenly distributed across the field, creating rhythm and visual continuity without relying on a dominant central medallion. Each floral element is clearly articulated, reflecting the precision associated with high quality Sarough rugs.

Border and Framing

A wide ivory main border frames the rug, filled with repeating floral rosettes and stylized blossoms. Narrow guard borders on either side add structure and definition, separating the richly detailed navy field from the lighter outer frame. The contrast between the dark field and light border enhances the clarity of the overall composition.

Colors and Their Placement

The dominant color is deep navy blue, forming the foundation of the field. Ivory appears prominently in the border and secondary motifs, while accents of burgundy, soft red, slate blue, light blue, olive green, and beige are woven throughout the floral design. These colors are carefully balanced to create depth without overwhelming the field.

Materials and Craftsmanship

This rug is hand knotted using fine kork wool, prized for its softness, durability, and ability to hold detailed patterns. The knotting is tight and even, resulting in sharp outlines and smooth color transitions. The wool pile has a supple, refined texture that reflects the high standards of traditional Sarough craftsmanship.
