An early 20th-century Persian Farahan Sarouk area rug in a medallion pattern. Hand-knotted circa 1900s, the rug features a richly hued rust red (with pink undertones) central field, anchored by a deep navy blue medallion that draws the eye inward.
Corner spandrels in a softly abrash French blue add a painterly dimension to the overall composition, framing the central motif with graceful harmony. The navy border is beautifully adorned with geometric florets in tones of pale green, yellow, soft cream, and light blue—colors that also echo throughout the field, adding depth and movement.
