About Sarab rugs: Sarab rugs are appreciated as some of the most well-made and decorative of room-sized Turkish rugs. Often finely woven, Sarab rugs tend to be made within a classically-derived Persian idiom of medallion and allover designs utilizing palmettos and vine scrolls. Some Sarab rugs recreate the grandeur of early classical carpets. But their palette is generally soft, with emphasis on ivory ground tones and pastel coloration in the details. Consequently, they are superior decorative rugs for interiors that require a formal and elegant touch.
