About the Item

19th Century Caucasian Sumak Carpet ( 11'2" x 17'4" - 340 x 530 ) Antique Large Caucasian - Soumak Caucasian Flat Weave Rug, Country of Origin: Caucasian, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional example of late 19th-century weaving originates from the Caucasus region, not too far from modern-day Russia. Its construction utilizes the highly durable and intricate Soumak technique, setting it apart from typical pile carpets of the era. The craftsmanship displayed in this piece is characteristic of the finest soumak flat-weave traditions, featuring a dense, wrapping weft structure that provides remarkable texture and stability. The field is dominated by bold, highly stylized geometric motifs arranged in a powerful, centralized medallion format, typical of Caucasian design sensibilities. The striking palette relies on deep indigo and rich madder red, contrasted sharply by accents of ivory and pale blue, lending the rug an impressive visual weight. Given its generous dimensions, this is a rare large format example of a Soumak, designed to anchor a substantial living space or grand hall. Collected during a period of intense interest in tribal textiles, this piece represents a significant historical artifact. Its excellent preservation and powerful design ensure its status among highly desirable antique rugs for collectors and designers seeking authenticity and enduring quality.
