Fine, embroidery-like motifs cover this Soumak kilim. Red forms the foundation of a varied palette, while the small scale of the pattern creates a composed overall effect. Its detailed surface rewards a closer look. The pattern threads run across the reverse, so this kilim is intended to be used on one side.
Soumak is a kilim weaving technique that produces an embroidery-like surface. The pattern is woven into the textile, rather than embroidered afterward: an additional weft wraps around the foundation threads. This more complex construction takes considerably longer than a simple flatweave, but creates a firm, durable textile with finer detail. As a characteristic of handweaving, opposite sides may differ in length by a few centimeters. Please contact us if you would like precise measurements or further details.
Persian kilims are valued around the world for their enduring designs, versatility and artistic geometric patterns. Their appeal lies both in the designs themselves and in weaving techniques refined over generations. These traditional Iranian textiles bring a distinctive handmade character to contemporary interiors.
