A vintage Caucasian silk soumak rug, circa 1950s-1970s, hand-woven using the soumak technique — a dense, flat-woven structure built by wrapping weft threads around the warp, giving a textured, embroidery-like surface rather than a pile. Woven entirely in silk, the piece carries a bold stacked-medallion design in deep reds, indigo, ivory and gold, bordered with the small star motifs typical of Caucasian Kazak-region weaving.

As is typical for a wider kilim of this kind, it was woven in two panels and joined down the center — photos show that center seam has partially separated and would benefit from a repair stitch. Light fringe wear is also present, consistent with its age. Noted here for transparency, not as a defect to hide.

Available now at our Evanston, IL showroom — one of a kind, won't be restocked.

Care: vacuum without the beater bar and rotate it once a year. For spills, blot with a clean, damp cloth. For a deeper clean, a professional rug cleaner who works with handmade rugs is the safest choice. We clean and repair hand-knotted rugs and cut a Durahold Plus pad to this exact size.
