Sumak hand-woven wool and silk blend flatweave rug with tribal geometric and animal motifs, SKU 65271, size 3′5″ × 3′1″. Reference image: 65271.jpg
This Sumak Rug embraces the vibrant beauty and rich storytelling of authentic nomadic design. Crafted in a distinctive "U" shape characteristic of traditional animal trappings or saddle covers, the highly detailed field showcases a striking central diamond medallion surrounded by a captivating array of stylized birds, quadrupeds, and ancient geometric symbols. Set against a luminous ivory background, the masterful composition is powerfully illuminated by deep burgundy, navy blue, and subtle accents of light blue and gold. The piece is elegantly framed by a dynamic, diagonally striped border, offering a true piece of tribal weaving heritage renowned for its intricate flatweave technique and breathtaking visual depth.
Hand-woven using the traditional Soumak technique with a luxurious wool and silk blend, this piece offers a thick, highly durable flatweave profile that resembles fine embroidery, complete with a mesmerizing sheen that shifts beautifully with the light. Measuring 3′5″ × 3′1″, it serves as a stunning, eclectic accent—perfect as a distinctive small floor rug, a striking wall hanging, or a unique textural overlay for furniture—bringing authentic tribal artistry and exquisite craftsmanship to the room.
