Textural Elegance in Flat-Weave Sumak Craft

This antique Caucasian Sumak rug, dating from the early 1900s, is a rare and richly textured flat-woven textile. Sumak weaving is a specialized technique that builds a sculptural relief without pile—resulting in a sturdy, tactile surface that bridges textile artistry and functional design.

Artful Distress with Warm Heritage Appeal

Presented in beautifully distressed condition, the wool surface shows gentle fading and time-worn character throughout. The visual calm speaks to decades of life well-lived—infusing serenity into the space it adorns. 

Durable Wool Construction with Flat Weave

Rich in both structure and texture, the Sumak weave offers resilience without compromising on softness. Natural dyes and fibers lend the rug an approachable elegance, ideal for both minimalist and layered interiors.

Modest Size with Collector’s Presence

At approximately 4'5" × 5'7" (135 cm × 170 cm), this Sumak is a refined statement piece. Its compact form is perfect for layering or defining cozy areas—whether in reading nooks, entryways, or intimate corners.
