This exceptional antique Azerbaijan Bag Soumak kilim is a striking example of traditional Caucasian flat-weave artistry, combining bold geometric rhythm with refined colorwork.
The tribal weavers in Malayer were often Turkish, and they employed the Turkish knot. The Gourde is a symmetrical knot, as opposed to the asymmetrical knot of many traditionally creations. Additionally, antique Malayer rugs regularly enjoy a low cut pile. Weavers trimmed the pile in order to enhance the appearance of the design. In addition to a broad range of design and color, these rugs were designed technically to enhance the artistry of the woven design.
