Traditionally woven in the Caucasus, this example is from
Iran (Persia). Soumak Rugs are flatwoven, like the more familiar Kilims. As
in pile rugs, the design is built up horizontally, line by line. The face of
a Soumak can look almost like embroidery, with a intricacy of design
reminiscent of needlepoint. And also as in needlepoint, the front of a
Soumak is a smooth and intricate work of art while the back is a tangle of
loose threads. Woven in a rainbow of colors, this Soumak uses simple
geometric forms to build up an extremely detailed design. On close
inspection, no single element is overly complex- only in the overall
presentation does the true sophistication of this Soumak emerge. This
stunning design is reproduced by license from Arthur T. Gregorian Oriental
Rugs located in "A little part of Persia in Newton Lower Falls,
Massachusetts".
You get four of these per one order.
Also available as a Mouse Rug
