This Persian rug originates from the Sarouk region, renowned for its traditional design elements and high-quality craftsmanship. The rug, created circa 1935, is a fine example of the Sarouk aesthetic, which flourished in the early 20th century.

The primary design features of this Sarouk rug include intricate curvilinear vine scrolls and elaborate arabesques, common hallmarks of the region's weaving tradition. These elements are intricately woven into the fabric, creating a pattern rich in floral motifs. The rug highlights a dense array of flowers, leaves, and swirling tendrils, meticulously arranged to form an elaborate and decorative scene.

The main color of the rug is a deep, vivid red, which serves as the background. This provides a striking contrast to the design elements rendered in shades of blue, white, beige, green, and touches of yellow and pink. The vibrant color palette highlights the details of the design, making them stand out against the rich red backdrop.

The rug features a series of three distinct borders. The outermost border is narrow, with a red background adorned by small floral motifs. The middle border is the widest, characterized by a darker blue background and more prominent floral designs in various colors, primarily pinks, whites, greens, and yellows. The innermost border, slightly wider than the outermost, also features a red background with intricate floral patterns.

One of the notable characteristics of this rug is its symmetrical design. The floral motifs and patterns are mirrored along both the central vertical and horizontal axes, lending a sense of balance and harmony to the overall composition. This symmetry is a defining trait of traditional Sarouk rugs.

The pattern density in this rug is significant, with the floral and botanical motifs tightly packed together, leaving minimal red background visible. This dense arrangement creates a visually rich and textured appearance, enhancing the rug's decorative appeal.

Constructed from wool on cotton, the rug exhibits a thick, luxurious pile, contributing to its durability and soft, velvety texture. This material choice is typical of Sarouk rugs from this period, emphasizing their high-quality craftsmanship.
