LARGE AUTHENTIC OLD TURKISH VILLAGE
HAND KNOTTED PILE YASTIK
KONYA REGION, ANATOLIA 1970s
This Authentic Antique Old Hand Knotted Pile Yastik Has a Hand Spun, Locally Grown Wool Pile Symmetrically Hand Knotted to Cotton Warps and Wefts and Displays a Fine Design and Format as well as the Weaving Style which Place it in the Konya Region of Anatolia and Date it to the 1970s. The Proof of Being Hand Knotted in a Village Environment can be seen as it is Not Totally Symmetrical and there is some Nice Abrash in the Red Ground, where the Wool used was Dyed at Different Times as the Rug was hand Knotted and so Shows some Different Tones of Colour.
This Genuine Example of Anatolian Woven Ethnographica from the 1970s, which must be one of the last of its type, compares very well with the other Antique Yastik I have in my Ebay shop in Weaving and Design Tradition, Measures 94cm x 56cm (3ft 1 inches x 1ft 10 inches) is large for a Yastik and is in Excellent Condition for its Age with only some very minor wear at the warp ends. See Photos.
All our Rugs Are Old and Antique not the usual Ebay Miss Described Modern Copies. Many are Over 100 years Old, so they show the signs of this age as rugs are made to walk on. We can not describe every mark of use. We provide a picture of the entire rug and it is up to you to assess its condition from our pictures. Do not bid unless you are happy with what you see and expect every rug to show signs of its Age. Contact us for more pictures or details if required.
If you want a rug in perfect condition buy a new copy from one of the Persian Rug dealers and do not bother even looking at ours.
A NOTE ON PHOTOS
We try to take photos which reproduce the colours of the rug as close as possible. As is obvious none are taken in a studio. We have tried to provide a few different tones and extremes and the actual colours are somewhere in between.
