LoomBloom 5'11''x8'9'' Gray Silver Soumak Flatweave Hand Knotted Traditional Wool Oriental Area Rug

Here is a rug for people who love pattern but not fuss. This LoomBloom Soumak wool rug is a flatweave in cool gray and silver, set with tan rosettes inside a lattice of sage threaded with gray-blue. Each rosette gets its own maze-like key frame, and a cream border of small leaves rings the whole design, with peach fringe at both ends. Because the hand knotted wool forms a flat, tight weave, the surface stays low and tidy, and it responds quickly to a pass with the vacuum. It is a traditional Oriental area rug that works in a living room where structure matters, a bedroom that likes ordered pattern, or a dining room that deserves a floor with detail. Home offices and entryways are natural homes for it too. Color, design and simple upkeep arrive together in this handmade piece, so you can enjoy the look without managing it, and the traditional layout feels at home in many rooms.

Story Behind the Art: Soumak rugs belong to an old flatweaving tradition recognized for a distinctive wrapping technique rather than conventional knotted pile construction. In this method, colored weft yarns are wrapped around the structural warps, producing a textured surface with an embroidered appearance and sharply articulated motifs. Historically associated with weaving cultures across the Caucasus, Persia, Anatolia, and neighboring regions, Soumak construction was used for floor coverings as well as bags and other functional textiles. Geometric medallions, angular flowers, tribal symbols, stylized animals, and repeating borders commonly appear throughout the design vocabulary. Wool has long been a favored material because of its strength, texture, and ability to hold varied color. Modern Soumak rugs continue to preserve the low-profile construction and graphic character of the tradition while adapting motifs and palettes for contemporary interiors.
