Let's break down what that means and what we can tell about the rug from that description:
Persian: This indicates the rug originates from Persia, the historical name for Iran, which is renowned for its rich rug-making traditions. Persian rugs are highly valued for their craftsmanship, intricate designs, and use of high-quality materials.  
Sarouk (also spelled Sarough, or sometimes Saroogh): This refers to a specific type of Persian rug known for its distinctive style and weaving techniques. Sarouk rugs are typically characterized by:  
Durable construction: They are known for their tightly woven, strong foundation, making them hard-wearing and long-lasting.  
Formal designs: They often feature a central medallion design, 
Floral motifs: They frequently incorporate floral patterns, including stylized flowers, leaves, and vines, as part of their intricate designs.  
Rich, deep colors: Sarouk rugs often use a palette of rich, vibrant colors, particularly reds, blues, and ivories.  
Farahan: This is referencing the region or style associated with Farahan, a district in western Persia (near modern-day Arak). Farahan rugs are known for their:
Fine weave: They are typically finely woven, contributing to the detailed patterns.  
Characteristic designs: They often feature Herati patterns (a small, repeating floral motif), as well as the central medallion and corner designs seen in the image.  
Subtle coloring: While still using rich colors, they may sometimes have a slightly more muted or subtle palette compared to some other Persian rugs.
10'4" x 15': These dimensions indicate the size of the rug, 10 feet 4 inches in width and 15 feet in length. This is a substantial, large rug suitable for a spacious room like a living room, dining room, or study.   Authenticity: The terms "Persian," "Sarouk," and "Farahan" suggest the rug is likely a genuine piece from Iran, crafted in the traditional manner.
