Commemorating the collected works of a multidisciplinary Turkish artist of this period, enjoying a creamy beige & ink blue within the luxurious blue border.

This particular design is a fabulous portrait, subtly enjoying an almost Chinese Deco influence connoting a diverse and joyful attitude the weaver brought to their works. Connoisseurs may note most of the wear relegated to the border barely visible in the field lending to the collectibility of the sketch. Exceptionally shabby-chic, almost more like art than a rug, a rare full pile piece relishing exclusivity in color & tactility well suited for an array of projects given its good condition.

Further Remarks: Initials can be found in the upper field, likely signifying a partner loom among the coveted works believed to hail from this artist. less
