417 x 112 cm -
Notes:This outstanding rug is woven with three hexagonal medallions in a field filled with stylised palmettes and geometric motifs and surrounded by a strong Kufic border. It is not inscribed with a date, but the beautifully saturated natural dyes, the quality of the wool and the relaxed artistry of the design, are all characteristic of the middle of the 19th century or earlier.
