Soumak / 23190

This Soumak antique rug measures 4' 10" x 9' 7", presenting a layered field of indigo, coral, cream, and pale blue in a tightly ordered geometric composition. Repeating medallions and angular forms build a rhythmic vertical structure, while the borders hold smaller star, cross, and foliate-inspired motifs with a steady, woven clarity. The surface shows low distress, with softened colour, fringe wear, and a well-aged hand that preserves its character without overwhelming the design. Circa 1880 - 1895, it reads as a detailed antique rug with both restraint and visual depth.
