About the Item

78937 Antique Caucasian Soumak Rug Runner, 03'02 x 10'04. This handwoven wool antique Caucasian Soumak rug is a stunning example of the rich cultural heritage and craftsmanship of the Caucasus region. Dating back to the early 20th century, this antique piece showcases the intricate flat-weave Soumak technique, where the patterns appear embroidered into the surface, giving the rug a textured and slightly raised appearance. The vibrant colorway, featuring bold hues of red, navy blue, brown, pink, mauve, dark green, and ivory, exudes a sense of vitality and tradition, evoking the natural landscapes and elements of the Caucasus mountains. Running along the heart of the composition are three bold hexagonal medallions that stretch across the central field, each filled with an array of symbolic motifs. These medallions are framed by a jagged edge design that radiates outward, symbolizing energy and protection. Inside, the stylized animal figures are believed to represent strength and guidance, guarding the home and family. The central medallion also contains intricate geometric shapes, representing balance and harmony, reflecting the weavers' deep connection to their environment and the importance of unity within the community. The borders of this Caucasian Soumak rug are equally captivating, featuring a rhythmic repetition of stylized animal motifs that surround the central field. These animal symbols, woven in blue, brown, dark green, red, ivory, and navy, are traditional motifs that often symbolize protection, fertility, and good fortune. Their repeating presence along the border creates a protective barrier, encircling the central design with symbolic guardianship. The border’s geometric precision contrasts beautifully with the central medallions, enhancing the rug’s overall balance and symmetry. This antique tribal Soumak runner not only brings the beauty of traditional craftsmanship into a contemporary setting but also carries with it the deep cultural symbolism of the Caucasian weavers. The Soumak weaving technique, combined with its vibrant palette and symbolic motifs, makes this piece a functional work of art. It is not only a testament to the skill and heritage of the artisans who created it, but it also serves as a meaningful addition to almost any space, where its nomadic charm and cultural depth can be appreciated for generations.
