About the Item

Vibrant Tribal Artistry: Vintage Caucasian Sumak Flatweave Rug Immerse your space in the spirited artistry of the Caucasus with this exceptional handmade vintage Caucasian Sumak rug, a unique flatweave piece originating from the region and dating from the 1970s. Unlike traditional pile rugs, Sumak weaves are created by a distinct wrapping technique that produces a durable, tapestry-like surface with a captivating, almost embroidered texture. This captivating rug is crafted from 100% natural wool and remains in good condition, retaining its vivid colors and intricate patterns. Dynamic Horizontal Bands of Geometric Motifs This striking Sumak rug is characterized by its bold and dynamic design, featuring a series of distinct horizontal bands of varying widths, each filled with an array of intricate geometric motifs. Within these bands, you'll discover a fascinating interplay of patterns, including repeating stylized S-hooks, abstract stars, and complex interlocking shapes, all rendered with a tribal sensibility. The vibrant color palette is a hallmark of Caucasian weaving, featuring rich reds, deep blues, crisp creams, and grounding blacks, with lively accents of green, yellow, and subtle pinks woven throughout. The rug's sides are neatly finished with narrow geometric borders, leading to classic short fringes at each end, emphasizing its authentic flatweave construction. The meticulous hand-weaving creates a firm yet flexible textile that is both visually arresting and remarkably durable. Durable Wool Flatweave & Authentic Charm Hand-woven with generations of traditional skill, this Sumak rug exemplifies the robustness inherent in flatweave construction. The high-quality wool ensures its longevity, and its good condition speaks to its lasting appeal and careful preservation over the decades. The absence of a pile makes it a versatile choice for various settings, offering a distinct aesthetic and easy maintenance. A Cultural Statement for Eclectic Interiors Measuring approximately 6 feet 4 inches by 3 feet 9 inches (195 cm x 120 cm), this vintage Caucasian Sumak rug is an ideal size for adding a splash of vibrant color and unique texture to a living room, hallway, study, or as an accent piece in a larger space. Its bold geometric design and lively palette make it a perfect complement for bohemian, eclectic, contemporary, or rustic interiors, bringing an authentic tribal narrative and a sophisticated artistic flair to any room. More than just a floor covering, this rug is a collectible piece of cultural history and a work of art. 3.
