About the Item
A striking vintage hand-woven flat-weave kilim rug from the mid-20th century, beautifully designed in the mid-century modern aesthetic. This unique textile depicts a whimsical and richly detailed underwater ocean scene, featuring a variety of marine life including fish, turtles, crabs, kelp forests, coral, underwater rocks, and mountainous seabeds.
Woven in a harmonious palette of Persian blues for the background, the aquatic elements come to life in vibrant tones of ivory, brown, red, and yellow. The artistic composition and graphic quality make this small kilim an exceptional example of narrative textile art.
This piece can be displayed as a distinctive floor accent or mounted as wall art, making it a versatile addition to modern, eclectic, or coastal-inspired interiors. A rare and charming find for collectors of vintage textiles and oceanic design.

19th Century Caucasian Soumak Rug Tapestry Wall Art
Located in Barrington, IL
This remarkable Shirvan Soumak from the Caucasus region of Asia is a rare and collectible textile composed of six individually designed panels, each showcasing its own distinct color palette and pattern. Woven using the traditional Soumak technique, this piece features naturally dyed wool, with vegetable-based pigments that have gracefully matured over time, resulting in a beautifully nuanced patina.
Unlike kilims, Soumak textiles are known for their thicker, more robust construction and embroidery-like detailing. The weaving technique—wrapping colored weft threads over warp yarns—produces a smooth face and a subtly textured back, creating both visual richness and lasting durability. Originally used for domestic bags and bedding storage (known as Mafrash), this type of weaving is now celebrated as collectible art.
Whether displayed as a wall tapestry or integrated into a curated interior design, this Shirvan Soumak brings authenticity, artistry, and the enduring spirit of nomadic life into your space. A treasured heirloom-quality piece for collectors, connoisseurs, and designers alike.
