Karaman Kilim, 18th Century
Konya Region

146x096cm / 4’9 x 3’2


These two eighteenth century prayer kelims are from possibly Karaman. The damaged portion suggests long usage as prayer rugs and it is interesting to notice that the orientation of the Saf? Kelim was disregarded in this respect which poses more questions than answers! They were acquired from a Vakif foundation sale at Karapinar mosque.

Our goods are normally offered with any required restoration completed, but should further work be necessary we will arrange this.

My prices are competitive, free of VAT and auctioneer’s commission and include carriage to any destination worldwide.
