Soumak / 18966

This Soumak antique rug measures 7' 0" x 11' 0" and presents a richly layered, time-softened surface in brick red, rust, camel, charcoal, and faded blue tones. A structured border of repeating geometric panels frames a more faded central field, where floral and angular motifs emerge through visible wear. The composition feels balanced yet lived-in, with areas of abrasion and fading that add depth rather than diminish character. Circa 1885 - 1900, it carries the grounded presence and tactile complexity that define a well-aged wool Soumak. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
