Story Behind The Art: Soumak rugs stand out for their intricate texture and distinctive weaving technique. Unlike flatweaves or pile rugs, Soumaks are made using a weft-wrapping method where extra threads are passed over and under the warp to create a slightly raised, embroidery-like surface. This gives them a dense, durable structure and a rich visual texture. Originating in the Caucasus and parts of Persia, Soumak designs often feature stylized birds, diamonds, medallions, and tribal motifs. Though traditionally made for utility, their rugged charm and graphic appeal have earned them a lasting place in global interiors.
