Soumak / 20939

This Soumak antique rug measures 218 x 284 cm and balances rust red, brown, muted teal, and cream across a composed, time-softened layout. Three central medallions lead the eye through a field framed by panelled borders, rosettes, and small geometric accents, all rendered with the layered character of wool and visible age. Medium distress has left gentle abrasion, fading, and softened edges, which add to its tactile, collected feel. Circa 1890 - 1920, it carries a rich, grounded palette and a quietly expressive surface. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
