Featured in this lot is a Persian Sarouk Sultanabad carpet, circa 1940s-1950's. The carpet features a wonderfully and professionally crafted wool construction that is pile woven design. The carpet shows a large dark red filed with pictorial and geometric patterns woven into it and features a lovely border that is decorated with traditional geometric patterns. The coloration of the decorations includes blue, red, and gold coloration. Sarouk rugs have been produced for much of the twentieth century. The early successes of the Sarouk rug are largely owed to the American market. From the 1910s to 1950s, the "American Sarouk", also known as the "painted Sarouk", was produced. Many merchants bought the old and antique Persian rugs from all over Iran and exported them to other countries. They used the city of Tabriz in northwest Iran to export these antiques to Europe via Erzurum in Turkey. Some merchants also used the southern ports on the Persian Gulf to export Persian rugs to the US by ship. The condition of this Sarouk carpet is good with some wear to the warp and the weft of the carpet and some discoloration to parts of the pile indicative of the age of the carpet but otherwise shows good overall condition. The measurements of this Persian carpet are 187"L x 139"W.*
