Antique Central Anatolian Konya region village prayer rug.

Circa 1800-1820.

A superb example of a Konya prayer rug, the soft red central mihrab is floating on a soft pistachio green ground, the rug is framed by a main border in a soft 'butterscotch' colour with rosettes and flowering vine. This style of border is often associated with rugs from the town of Ladik. The rug is beautifully drawn with a perfectly balanced colour palette.

The rug has very soft wool and a floppy handle, the rug has slight even wear with good pile.

Hand washed and ready for use or display. The rug would make a superb wall hanging or would be suitable for very light domestic use.
