Antique Persian Farahan Sarouk Rug 49112

Antique Persian Farahan Sarouk Rug 49112, Country of  Origin / Rug Type: Persian Rugs, Circa Date: 1900 –  True to the style of many beautiful Sarouk rugs, this exquisite masterpiece features a vibrant collection of fiery tones that stand out well against the foil of pitch black. The border’s background is defined by this Stygian darkness, while zig-zagging patterns in gold and vermilion run along the Persian rug’s foreground, further defining the space and drawing the viewer’s eyes to the petals found at the empty space of each diagonal line. At the center of the antique rug, a complex pomegranate shape dominates the foreground, and several layers of color lead to the very heart, playing with the viewer’s perception of negative and positive space.
