Carpet kilim soumakh 193X288CM

Among the many woven kilims produced in the Caucasian area, the soumakh or dishes are certainly the most renowned insofar as their name is used to indicate all kilims made with the technique in twisted frames. The characteristic of these fabrics is precisely the type of production called "twisted frames" that is to pass additional frames on the basic structure, they are used to create drawings of decoration. In some respects, the Soumakh can be considered to be the meeting point between the world of kilims and carpets, in fact, although being woven flat, they are often decorated with typical patterns in the Caucasian carpet like Akstafa or Fachralu. They are often large and warm colours with predominance of red and blue.
