1880's Antique Caucasian Soumak Rug, 03'11 x 03'11
About the Item
79092 Antique Caucasian Soumak Rug, 03'11 x 03'11. This exquisite handwoven wool antique Caucasian Soumak rug is a remarkable piece of art that embodies the rich cultural traditions and intricate craftsmanship of the Caucasus region. The Soumak rug features a bold, symmetrical design centered around two intricately woven cross-shaped medallions in a field of soft ivory. These crosses, outlined in deep navy and filled with vivid red and maroon accents, evoke themes of faith, balance, and protection, serving as powerful symbolic anchors to the composition.
Surrounding the central medallions, the field is adorned with an intricate array of stylized floral motifs and vine-like forms in alternating hues of red and navy blue. These elements symbolize fertility, growth, and the interconnectedness of life. The artistry of the design is further elevated by its dynamic color palette, with the contrasting ivory field amplifying the vibrancy of the surrounding motifs. The detailed, repetitive patterning creates a rhythmic flow, showcasing the skill and creativity of the weaver while drawing the viewer's eye inward to the heart of the design.
Encasing this central tableau, the rug's borders offer an additional layer of depth and intricacy. The borders feature a running water symbol. Flanking these running water borders are a series of narrow horizontal stripes in warm earth tones, offering a harmonious balance to the rug's bold central design. These borders not only frame the composition beautifully but also reflect the enduring cultural heritage of the Caucasian weaving tradition.
The tactile quality of this Soumak rug is as captivating as its visual appeal, thanks to the distinctive flat-weaving technique used in its construction. The Soumak technique, characterized by its durable and textured finish, provides both a sense of depth and a unique braided appearance. This antique rug is not only a visual masterpiece but also a testament to the enduring artistry and storytelling embedded in Caucasian tribal textiles. Whether displayed as a focal point in an entryway or as an accent in a cozy study, this Caucasian masterpiece carries with it a sense of history, craftsmanship, and cultural significance that transcends time.
