Madder Red Soumak • Vintage Armenian Flatweave Rug / Wall Hanging (4'2"x6')

Madder Red Vintage Armenian Soumak / Wall Art • Handmade  Wool Carpet • 4x6 Scatter / Accent Flatweave Rug for Living Room, Bedroom, Dining, Kitchen, Study & Office

✔ This rug brings narrative, symbolism, and rich cultural artistry into a space, offering more than pattern — it carries heritage and story. Handwoven in the Armenian weaving tradition of the South Caucasus, this vintage soumak rug features a deep madder-red field filled with large, stylized pictorial motifs. Tree-of-life symbols, birds, and geometric emblems are arranged in a balanced layout around a central blue medallion. These motifs traditionally represent protection, family, abundance, and connection to nature.

The palette is bold yet beautifully aged, combining madder red, slate blue, soft ivory, charcoal, muted camel, sage green, and touches of pale gold. Detailed borders frame the central field with rhythmic geometric bands, adding structure and movement while enhancing the storytelling quality of the piece.

The soumak technique creates a slightly raised, textured surface, giving the designs crisp definition and a tactile, almost embroidered feel — ideal for both floor use and as a striking textile wall hanging. Handwoven from wool using traditional techniques, it shows the subtle irregularities and depth that make authentic village textiles so special.
