SOUMAK MAFRASH CARPET

Model 00419 – Soumak Mafrash 19th Century Collection, made from 100% Wool and measuring 0.60 × 0.98 m, is a Hand Woven piece distinguished by its bold horizontal composition and strong tribal character. The design is centered around a wide rectangular panel featuring a sequence of stylized geometric motifs arranged in a rhythmic horizontal band. These elements are rendered with sharp precision and repeated symmetry, creating a sense of movement across the composition. The surrounding areas incorporate multiple border bands filled with angular, interlocking patterns and small symbolic forms, adding visual complexity while maintaining a clear structural framework. The contrast between the detailed patterned sections and the more open red field enhances the overall balance. The lower portion is defined by a solid red field that anchors the composition, providing visual weight and emphasizing the horizontal format typical of mafrash panels.
