Antique Sumak Persian Carpet 43812 - For Sale

Antique Sumak Persian Carpet 43812
Price: $8500.00
43812 Antique Sumak, Persia, late nineteenth century.

Sumak flatwoven carpets like this are prized for the crisp, precise geometry of their design and their rich but delicate palette. The best-known Sumaks are those of the Caucasus. Those produced in Northern Persia like this are much rarer. Here the field consists of an unusual allover pattern of octagonal and diamond medallions framed by a hexagonal lattice of latch hook vines and serrated leafy fronds. The ‘dragon’ border recalls the Sumaks of the Caucasus, although it is rendered here in a distinctive, unusual way, with diamond forms interspersed among the ‘dragons.’ The use of contrasting but harmonious color nicely complements the complexity of the design.
