Originating from the renowned weaving center of Sultan-Abad (modern-day Arak) in western Iran, these antique carpets are globally celebrated for their grand, sweeping scale and uniquely relaxed, decorative interpretations of classical Persian floral designs. Historically favored by prominent Western interior designers in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Sultan-Abad rugs move away from rigid, microscopic formality, offering instead an airy, bohemian elegance and highly desirable, softly faded palettes. This monumental 9’2″ x 17’0″ carpet is anchored by a beautifully time-softened terracotta and rust-red field. The canvas displays a striking, highly visible abrash—a natural, sweeping horizontal color variation in the lower third of the rug that transitions the red into a soft, glowing apricot, highlighting the authentic hand-dyed batches of mountain wool. The expansive interior is patterned with a breathtaking all-over lattice of large, diamond-shaped ivory and pale slate-blue medallions, interconnected by scrolling vines, stylized palmettes, and delicate botanical sprays. This airy, rhythmic garden is elegantly framed by a wide, contrasting border woven in serene shades of pale blue and ivory, effectively containing the vibrant warmth of the central field. Crafted with a durable, resilient hand-spun wool pile, this antique piece has achieved a masterful, time-worn patina that brings immediate soul and history to an interior. It is perfectly scaled to command a magnificent formal dining room, ground an expansive, curated living space, or add profound historic luxury to a sprawling estate library.

To ensure the longevity and beauty of your hand-knotted rug, regular maintenance is essential. We recommend vacuuming your rug frequently, being careful to turn off the beater bar to prevent damaging the natural fibers and delicate fringe. If spills occur, blot the area immediately with a clean, dry cloth rather than rubbing, which can push the stain deeper. Rotating your piece every few months will help it wear evenly and minimize color fading from direct sunlight. Finally, to truly protect your investment, we advise having your rug professionally washed at our Evanston cleaning facility every few years to gently remove deeply embedded dirt and restore its original luster.
