Soumakh carpet. Caucasus, first half of the 19th century.Hand-knotted wool.Measurements: 254 x 306 cm.This carpet comes from the Barcelona residence of the Sultan of Morocco, S.A.I. Muley Hafid, a tower-palace that he had built in calle LLeó XIII nº 15, between 1915 and 1920, which is still preserved today. There is an article published in the Vanguardia de Barcelona by Lluis Permanyer, chronicler and historian of Barcelona, entitled "The Moorish friend Muley Hafid", which tells the story of this character in relation to the years he lived in the city of Barcelona, where he was much loved and idolised by adults and children alike, above all for his great generosity towards the city and its inhabitants.A flat-weave rug that was made in the Caucasus Mountains using the "wrapped weft" technique, and dyed with natural vegetable dyes, it has a splendid combination of colours and a wonderful tribal design of intricate and bold geometric shapes.The term Sumakh indicates the technique of 'wrapped wefts', and is the name of the village of Shemaka in the Caucasus, where this technique was widely practised, but it was certainly not invented there. Soumak has been widely practised throughout the world of antique carpet production, from Central Asia to Iran, the Caucasus and Turkey. There are countless variations, but simplified to obtain the carpet designs the wefts of the kilim, woven earlier, are wrapped with wool of various colours (in fact, the Sumakhs are easily recognisable by their compact consistency and the coloured wefts running free on the back of the carpet). Like the weaving techniques, the origin of Sumakh patterns is also very ancient: animal and geometric motifs in a symbolism charged with meaning.This carpet comes from the Barcelona residence of the Sultan of Morocco, S.A.I. Muley Hafid, a tower-palace that he had built in calle LLeó XIII nº 15, between 1915 and 1920, which is still preserved today.
