This Old Lace Soumak presents a clean geometric field in soft ivory and beige tones that create a serene, understated presence. The traditional soumak weave produces distinctive raised ridges across the surface, giving the geometric motifs a subtle three-dimensional quality. The neutral palette of whites and warm beiges offers versatility while maintaining the authentic character of Afghan tribal weaving. The overall effect is both calming and sophisticated.

Handwoven by skilled Afghan artisans using traditional soumak techniques, this rug showcases the flat-weave construction that distinguishes soumak from pile rugs. The wool comes from highland sheep in Afghanistan's mountainous regions, prized for its durability and natural lustre. Each geometric element is carefully built up through the distinctive soumak wrapping technique, creating a sturdy textile that improves with age and use.

At 4'3" x 5'6", this piece works well as a foundation for seating areas in medium-sized rooms or as an accent in larger spaces. The neutral tones complement both contemporary and traditional furnishings, while the geometric patterns suit modern and transitional interiors. This size fits comfortably in 4 x 6 spaces and pairs beautifully with other pieces from our oriental rug collection. Sourced directly by ALRUG from Afghan weavers since 2002, free worldwide shipping.
