Interestingly, unlike the Kilim, Soumaks are rarely reversible. Their undersides expose weft strands, sometimes inches long, and here we see evidence of their historic origin. The purpose of the unclipped weft strands is likely to provide additional warmth, for use during cold nights and long migrations to winter pastures. Soumaks, after all, are a truly native form--they are beautiful representations of tribal utilitarian art, central to the lives of semi-nomadic tribes.
