Traditional Persian Elegance Woven to Last

Known for intricate designs and exceptional craftsmanship, Farahan rugs are timeless centerpieces that bring grace, warmth, and heritage to any space.

What Are Farahan Rugs?

Farahan rugs (also spelled Ferahan) are among the most celebrated Persian rug styles in the world, known for their rich cultural history, intricate patterns, and extraordinary durability. Originating from the Farahan region near Sarouk in modern-day Iran, these hand-knotted masterpieces became globally renowned in the 19th century and remain a favorite among rug collectors, designers, and homeowners alike.

Made using some of the finest wool available, Farahan rugs are known for their dense knots, often exceeding 120 knots per square inch, and soft yet sturdy piles. Their color palettes typically include ivory, indigo blue, soft reds, greens, and rust tones, paired with floral motifs, delicate vine scrolls, and striking medallion layouts.

What sets Farahan rugs apart is the balance they strike: graceful curves paired with precise symmetry, classical influences blended with subtle refinement. These rugs bring quiet sophistication to interiors ranging from traditional to transitional and even modern spaces.

Styling Tips & Décor Ideas

Where to Place a Farahan Rug

Because of their elegance and statement-making designs, Farahan rugs make a stunning impact in:

Formal living and dining rooms
Bedrooms, under or around beds
Home offices or studies
Entryways or long hallways
Sitting areas need a grounded, luxurious feel

Use them to anchor antique or contemporary furniture, or let the rug speak for itself as the focal point in a minimalist room. Their finely detailed designs add texture and storytelling to any space without overpowering your existing décor.

Pairing Patterns and Colors

Farahan rugs often include floral or medallion motifs and subtle curvilinear designs. Pair them with neutral furniture to highlight the rug's artistry, or use coordinating warm tones and wood finishes to create a cohesive, cozy space.
