Antique Turkish Soumak Rug
Antique Turkish Soumak
Turkish sumac rugs are a type of flatweave carpet that originates from Turkey, known for their distinctive and vibrant patterns. Sumac weaving is a technique that utilizes a less complex loom than traditional pile rugs, resulting in a durable and lightweight textile that is often used for decorative purposes, such as wall hangings, throws, and various home decor items.
They are typically made from natural fibres such as wool, cotton, or silk, which contribute to their durability and aesthetic appeal.
Sumac rugs are characterized by geometric patterns, floral motifs, and vibrant colours. The designs often reflect cultural and regional influences, showcasing the artistry of their weavers.
The sumac weaving technique involves interlocking threads that create a flat surface. This method gives the rugs a unique texture and appearance, distinguishing them from knotted rugs.
Due to their flat weave and lighter weight, sumac rugs can be easily used in various settings, including as area rugs, wall decor, or as table runners.
Sumac rugs are valued for their craftsmanship, beauty, and cultural significance, making them sought-after items for collectors and home decor enthusiasts alike. Whether used in traditional or modern settings, they add a touch of elegance and warmth to any space.
