A Sarouk rug is a type of Persian rug made in the Sarouk village of Iran. Sarouk was renowned for its carpet weaving industry in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The most coveted of these rugs are made by a Farahan, a 19th century designer. He was so well renowned, till today these rugs are often called Farahan Sarouk rugs. Sarouk rugs have been a brand of rug that have remained extremely consistent in their leading quality. Sumac rug Soumak (also spelled Soumakh, Sumak, Sumac, or Soumac) is a tapestry technique of weaving sturdy, decorative fabrics used for rugs, domestic bags and bedding, with soumak fabrics used for bedding known as soumak mafrash. Soumak is a type of flat weave, somewhat resembling kilim, but with a stronger and thicker weave, a smooth front face and a ragged back, where kilim is smooth on both sides. Soumak lacks the slits characteristic of kilim, as it is usually woven with supplementary weft threads as continuous supports.The technique involves wrapping coloured weft threads over and under the warp threads, adding strength and embroidery-like pattern.
