This antique circa 1940 Saraband rug is a handmade, one-of-a-kind Persian carpet with an elegant all-over Herati-style field and finely layered border system. Its softly faded ivory and pale blue palette gives the hand-knotted design a refined, airy presence, while the repeating motifs and crisp border geometry showcase the balanced craftsmanship collectors prize in vintage Persian weaving. An ideal choice for a bedroom, living room, or office.
Faded neutral tones of ivory, pale blue, beige, taupe, cream, and slate, with a ivory field.
Saraband rugs are woven in the Saraband district of Arak province in west-central Iran, and are perhaps best known for the "mir" or boteh field pattern — rows of small paisley-like teardrop forms — that has become one of the most widely recognized motifs in Oriental rug design. The boteh may represent a bent cypress tree, a flame, or a stylized leaf; its exact origin is debated.
Classic Saraband rugs feature this all-over boteh field on a rich red ground with a distinctive border composition. They are woven on a cotton foundation with the asymmetric knot and a medium pile. Their warm, rhythmic pattern and versatile palette have made them enduringly popular in traditional and transitional interiors.
