7'4 x 12'7 Antique Soumak Flat weave Rug / Large Caucasian Rug

Regular price $0.01

This is a large and amazing Caucasian (Russian origin) Soumak rug from the 1880s and we're so lucky to have found it because these color ways are one in a million! The lovely rug lends itself well to the detailed weft-wrapped weaving technique known as Soumak. This wool on wool, flat weave rug was made in the Caucasus mountains and it features medallions and intricate motifs throughout. The borders have ram horns woven in...just so amazing.

 
Beautifully worn and aged through time, the backdrop of this flat weave is sand with variations of the vegetable dyed wool color throughout. It also has shades of indigo blue and some touches of coral. You will see abrash (natural shades of dyes to color) throughout, which is so beautiful and indicative of this antique hand woven gem. It is a very tribal piece, highly decorative and meaningful with immense history, art and culture that would be a statement piece in the home.
