A true heavyweight from the 1920s—this is a Mohajeran Sarouk rug with all the hallmarks of quality, resilience, and luxury. Woven with a stiff cotton foundation and thick, plush wool pile, this Persian beauty is dense, durable, and made to last generations.
Set on a rarely seen navy ground (most Sarouks are on red fields, which makes this deep, inky blue extra special), the floral motifs absolutely pop. You’ll notice intricate sprays and bouquets of stylized blossoms in shades of coral, dusty rose, ivory, soft gold, space blue, rusty and berry red, walnut, green, golden yellow, and steel blue—each petal handwoven with incredible care and craftsmanship.
The wool on this rug is next level—Sarouk wool is known for its soft-yet-strong character and natural sheen, and this one delivers. It’s got that velvety luster that catches the light just right. And because of the high-quality materials and dense weave, Sarouks like this will hold up beautifully centuries of use.
There is some scattered wear where the pile is a bit lower in the field in some spots, as seen in the photos, but this rug has plenty of great wool, giving this rug a plush underfoot feel. The regal berry red and navy borders frame the piece superbly, adding richness and contrast to the field.
This rug is weighted, well-balanced, and packed with presence. A true testament to the artistry and toughness of Persian weaving—ready to anchor a space with elegance and enduring spirit.
