Description
A richly detailed Persian medallion design in deep charcoal and warm cream — the Ararat brings timeless traditional elegance to any living space.
A rectangular traditional Persian-style area rug with a deep charcoal gray field dominated by an ornate central medallion surrounded by dense floral scrollwork, leaf sprays, and vine motifs in cream, beige, and warm brown tones. The field transitions into a wide ivory/cream border filled with matching floral and scroll patterns, framed by thin inner guard borders in charcoal and brown. The overall layout is symmetrical and formal, with the medallion as the clear focal point and allover secondary motifs filling the remaining field. The pile is low and smooth with a machine-woven surface texture. Edges are cleanly bound with no fringe or tassels. The color palette is earthy and sophisticated — dark charcoal anchoring warm neutrals.

About This Product
The Nourison Ararat brings timeless Persian elegance into your home with a richly detailed medallion center, sweeping floral scrollwork, and a classic layered border. The deep charcoal field is beautifully offset by warm cream and brown tones, creating an earthy, sophisticated palette that feels both grounded and refined. Intricate traditional motifs — from delicate leaf sprays to ornate floral vines — fill every inch of this rug, giving it the look of a hand-crafted heirloom at an accessible price point.
With a medium-low pile at 0.25 inches and a cotton backing, the Ararat lies flat and stable underfoot, making it a practical choice for living rooms, dining rooms, and formal sitting areas. Its neutral earth-tone palette makes it remarkably versatile — equally at home in a classically furnished study or a transitional space that blends old and new. If you've been searching for a statement rug that anchors a room without overwhelming it, the Ararat's quiet drama and timeless design make it a standout choice.
