1 Soumak Rug
All-wool tapestry rugs woven in Transcaucasia. They are made in loose weave and from coarse dyed yarns in geometrical designs. They are also called Kashmir, but the rugs are not of the Cashmere quality of wool. They are made in small and large sizes. The knots are tied in a slanting direction with alternate rows in a reverse direction causing the underside of the rug to have a herring-bone effect. Two rows of tufts are knotted for the insertion of two ground picks. The term is a corrupted form of Shemaka, which town is a weaving centre. -
