During the nineteenth century, Sarouk rugs were known for dense all-over Herati and Gul Hennai designs woven with fine asymmetric knotting on strong cotton foundations. Influenced later by the refined aesthetics of Tabriz carpets, Sarouk weavers adopted more formal floral medallion compositions with balanced symmetry and elaborate botanical detailing. Following World War I, Sarouk artisans introduced a more open decorative style featuring graceful detached floral sprays scattered across richly colored fields, a design innovation that became one of the defining characteristics of Sarouk rugs worldwide. Hand knotted using premium wool and vegetable dyes, Sarouk rugs are admired for their luxurious pile, luminous colors, timeless floral artistry, and exceptional decorative versatility.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Loombloom","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55157871509795,"sku":"LBR21236","price":1499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0847\/1635\/5875\/files\/A21236_20lbr.jpg?v=1779947644","url":"https:\/\/loombloomrugs.com\/products\/red-handknotted-wool-lbr21236","provider":"loomBloom Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
