The flowers bloom in beautiful shades of green, blue, red, and pink, bringing ageless beauty to the surface with the freshness of a garden in full color. The Lilian village of the Sarouk district in Western Persia produced runners of particular refinement — the abrash navy field paired with the allover floral pattern is one of the most beautiful and sought-after combinations in the Lilian tradition. At over 100 years old and in very good condition, this runner retains its colors and beauty with remarkable freshness.
