Imagine a square rug so plush, gorgeous, and heavy, UPS won’t even touch her, she's got to ride and be delivered by a special truck like the queen she is. Weighing in at over 150 pounds, crafted by hand in the 1930s, this antique Persian Sarouk rug was likely commissioned for a prominent household a century ago with refined tastes, and is packed with more detail than your grandma’s tea set.
Lovely shades of blue, greens, pinks and more all swirl over a berry red ground in floral sprays like a kaleidoscope that decided to major in fine art. The border bands are just as extra with so much going on, you’ll barely notice the navy backdrop.
Made of vegetable dyed wool and with a full pile, she’s lived her life pampered and protected (thanks to an esteemed collector who is no longer with us), that she has survived the decades in immaculate condition. Square antique rugs are an oddball rarity in the rug world, like finding a four-leaf clover in a meadow. We’re letting this gem go for a fraction of the retail price, but don’t tell her that, because she knows she’s priceless.
