About the Item
This exquisite early 20th-century Turkish silk Septh prayer rug is a rare and highly decorative example of refined Ottoman-era weaving. Executed entirely in lustrous silk, the rug features a distinctive Septh design composed of six prayer niches (mehrabs), each rendered in a harmonious yet individually colored palette—including shades of blue, green, brown, and complementary accent tones.
The intimate scale and architectural depth of the multiple niches create a visually engaging composition that feels both spiritual and artistic. The fine silk pile enhances the clarity of the design while lending a subtle luminosity that elevates the piece beyond a traditional floor covering. Equally suited for display as a wall-hung tapestry, or a woven table art.

19th Century Caucasian Soumak Rug Tapestry Wall Art
Located in Barrington, IL
This remarkable Shirvan Soumak from the Caucasus region of Asia is a rare and collectible textile composed of six individually designed panels, each showcasing its own distinct color palette and pattern. Woven using the traditional Soumak technique, this piece features naturally dyed wool, with vegetable-based pigments that have gracefully matured over time, resulting in a beautifully nuanced patina.
Unlike kilims, Soumak textiles are known for their thicker, more robust construction and embroidery-like detailing. The weaving technique—wrapping colored weft threads over warp yarns—produces a smooth face and a subtly textured back, creating both visual richness and lasting durability. Originally used for domestic bags and bedding storage (known as Mafrash), this type of weaving is now celebrated as collectible art.
Whether displayed as a wall tapestry or integrated into a curated interior design, this Shirvan Soumak brings authenticity, artistry, and the enduring spirit of nomadic life into your space.
