Sarouk ساروق

Sarouk is a village in the Farahan district north of Arak, whose name passed to a large commercial production made in Arak and nearby villages, much of it for the United States. Sarouks are asymmetrically knotted on a cotton foundation. The later commercial type has a longer pile and a rose-red field of detached floral sprays, and many were chemically bleached and repainted after import.
