8'9 x 11'11 Handwoven Indo-Persian Heriz Style Soumak Area Rug

Item Details

This contemporary Indian Soumak rug features a sophisticated weft-wrapped construction that emulates the bold, geometric aesthetic of Persian Heriz textiles. Eschewing traditional knots, the rug is built using a complex wrapping technique that creates a distinctive ‘arrow’ or herringbone texture across the face. The design centers on a large-scaled geometric medallion in navy and ivory against a rich madder-red field. The flat-weave format provides a crisp, graphic clarity to the angular botanical motifs and Samovar borders. Hand-woven with high-quality wool, this Soumak offers the durability of a pile rug with the slim profile and artisanal texture of a premier flat-weave.
