This antique, finely hand-knotted Sarough rug is exemplary of the high quality that is produced in this small village in the Arak region. It has been inspected and cared for by our experts to guarantee its beautiful condition. This antique rug demonstrates the precious durability of Sarough rugs. It is a real investment, as old Sarough rugs are a rarity and are no longer woven in this way.


Iran/Persia, Arak

Sarouk is located north of Arak and is the place of origin for some of the most sought-after Persian rugs today. Antique Sarouk rugs have a very distinctive salmon red colour that is almost unique among hand-knotted oriental rugs. In addition, the rugs are made from high-quality sheep’s wool and vegetable dyes, crafted to an excellent standard. A genuine Sarouk lasts a lifetime.

Hand-spun wool

This rug is made from hand-spun sheep’s wool of the highest quality. Wool is still spun by hand, especially in Iran (formerly Persia), Afghanistan and Pakistan, before the actual knotting of the rug begins. Over the centuries, wool has proven itself to be a natural and extremely hard-wearing material. Among other things, it has dirt-repellent and heat-insulating properties. At the same time, wool is incomparably soft and has a natural sheen.

Hand-knotted

Traditionally hand-knotted rugs still represent the highest quality standard among all types of rug. Depending on the knotting technique, these rugs are extremely hard-wearing and can last for generations. The finer and denser a rug is knotted, the more detailed the ornaments and patterns that can be shown in the pile. At the same time, a very fine oriental rug requires significantly more manual work, as well as a higher level of experience and skill from the weaver. Knot density is therefore also a key factor in the value of hand-knotted rugs. However, quality is not directly linked to knot density. A more coarsely knotted rug can still be made to an excellent standard.

Care & Fair

Following our ethical principles, we at Nain Trading are declared supporters of the organization CARE & FAIR. The goal is joint action by carpet dealers worldwide to give children from carpet weaver families in India and Pakistan the foundation for socially protected growing up. This improves the situation for the whole family in the long term. A child-friendly childhood for a life worth living - that is the mission.
