Celeste Rugs 7'11" x 9'10" Hand Knotted Soumak Traditional Reversible Serapi Peach and Brown Wool Area Rug

A layered geometric medallion sits at the center of this hand-knotted Soumak rug, set against a deep chocolate brown field and framed by soft peach and warm beige spandrels. Muted mint and powder blue floral details add further contrast, all built using the traditional Soumak flatweave technique that gives the piece its low, reversible profile.

Individually woven by skilled artisans, each rug is a truly one-of-a-kind piece. This authentic craftsmanship results in a distinct work of art built to last for generations. 

Construction: Hand-knotted using the traditional Soumak flatweave technique from wool over a cotton foundation, with a reversible, low-profile build.

Care & Maintenance: Vacuum both sides regularly using suction only. Blot spills immediately with a dry cloth rather than scrubbing, and flip the rug periodically to take advantage of its reversible construction. Professional cleaning is recommended to maintain the flatweave's texture.

Story Behind the Art: Soumak rugs have a rich history rooted in the Caucasus, Persia (modern Iran), and Anatolia (Turkey). This flatwoven textile technique dates back centuries, originating from nomadic tribes who used it for rugs, bags, and other functional textiles. Unlike traditional kilims, Soumak rugs feature a unique weft-wrapping technique, creating a textured, embroidered appearance with bold geometric motifs, stylized floral patterns, and tribal symbols. Historically crafted with hand-spun wool and natural dyes, they are known for their durability and vibrant designs. Today, Soumak rugs are also woven in India, valued for their reversible construction and affordability, making them a practical yet stylish choice for modern interiors.
