阿拉克
Arak rugs, otherwise known as Arak carpets, are made in the province of Arak, Iran. Technically, all rugs from Arak can be considered Arak rugs but those termed "Sarouk" are marked as of the best quality, while the more general term "Arak" is used for rugs of lesser quality. "Meshkabad" used to be the term for the worst quality rugs, but such rugs are now called "mahal" or Arak. Araks are much more coarsely knotted than the rugs of than Sarouk rugs. Their designs are quite similar, although rather more crudely executed, and often display bold floral medallions set against open fields.
