Rug & Kilim’s Contemporary Sumak Rug in Red and Charcoal Textured Design
Handwoven in wool, this 9x12 modern Sumak rug is a sophisticated example of contemporary craftsmanship rooted in traditional flatweave techniques. This piece showcases the enduring appeal of Sumak weaving, reinterpreted through a minimalist and modern lens.On the Design:This rug features a richly textured field defined by an interplay of deep red and charcoal tones, creating a subtle yet visually compelling surface. Rather than relying on overt motifs, the design embraces a more understated, almost monochromatic aesthetic, where variation in weave and abrash becomes the focal point. The Sumak technique lends a distinct tactile quality, with a slightly raised, embroidered-like texture that enhances depth and dimension. Fine striations of darker fibers run through the red ground, producing a dynamic tonal shift that changes with light and perspective.The absence of borders and figurative elements allows the texture and color interplay to take center stage, making this piece especially versatile for modern and contemporary interiors. It offers a refined balance of warmth and depth, ideal for spaces seeking subtle richness without visual excess.
"Rug & Kilim has been a pleasure to work with from the very start of our relationship. Not only is their service outstanding, their inventory of one of a kind vintage rugs is unparalleled."
— Alan Eckstein and Margaret Goddard, Somerset House
