Vintage Turkmen Ersari in Allover Geometric Pattern in Red, Green, Black

Discover the exceptional artistry and rich heritage of this magnificent Mid-20th Century Vintage Turkmen Yomut Soumak Rug. Woven in the early 1900s in Central Asia.  This rug is created using the unique Soumak tapestry technique, a robust and decorative flat weave that is thicker and more durable than a traditional kilim.  The main field of this Yomut Soumak is a rich and vibrant red, providing a powerful and inviting backdrop for its beautiful all-over geometric design. The intricate geometric motifs are rendered in a sophisticated palette of deep dark blue and luminous cream, creating a captivating contrast against the red field. Woven with a wool foundation and a plush wool pile, this rug is a beautifully created tribal textile with a powerful sense of authenticity and history.  The Soumak weaving technique involves wrapping colored weft threads over and under the warp threads, adding both strength and an intricate, embroidery-like pattern. Unlike kilims, Soumak weaving lacks the characteristic slits, resulting in a smooth front face and a textured back.
