The Antique Caucasian Flatweave Rustic Tribal Soumak Area Rug is an exceptional example of 19th-century tribal weaving from the Caucasus region. Handcrafted circa the 1880s, this wool rug utilizes the intricate Sumak flatweave technique to create a rich, textural surface. The design features a vibrant madder red field adorned with bold, stepped octagons in deep indigo and pale blue-green. Striking yellow accents highlight the internal geometry of the medallions, while traditional guard borders like the running dog motif frame the dense allover pattern. With its low 0.25-inch pile height and elongated rectangular shape, this authentic piece serves as a powerful statement of historical artistry, making it an ideal choice for hallways or contemporary interiors.
