Antique Soumak Wool Red Square Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa Date: 1930s. This exceptional example of weaving originates From Persia, showcasing the robust geometric traditions characteristic of the region's finest flatweaves in a balanced square format. The dense, non-pile construction identifies this as a classic example of soumak rugs, where the weft threads wrap around the warp, creating a distinct, textured surface. The field utilizes an allover design of interlocking, stylized medallions, providing visual continuity and depth across the entire square composition. The palette is highly saturated, dominated by rich indigo and forest green, which serve as powerful contrasts to the vibrant primary tone. This striking hue, often described as a deep red color, lends the piece its exceptional warmth and intensity.
