The Sumak (Soumak) design represents one of the oldest flat-weave traditions in textile art, distinguished by its characteristic herringbone texture created through a wrapped-weft technique. Originating from the Caucasus region, Sumak patterns feature bold geometric compositions rendered in vibrant, deeply saturated colors that tell stories of tribal identity and artistic heritage. This exquisite piece is hand-knotted from 100% premium wool, offering a rich, resilient pile with a natural luster that deepens over time. The field showcases bold geometric medallions, dramatic tribal symbols, and structured compartmentalized compositions, expressing striking textural dimension and vibrant tribal artistry. The composition is built upon a beige ground, framed by a distinguished rose border, creating a harmonious and visually compelling palette. Measuring 9'0" x 12'0" (approximately 108 sq. ft.), this hand-knotted rug is a testament to the skill and dedication of master weavers — a striking centerpiece for any discerning collector or design enthusiast.
