The source of the rug comes from the book Renaissance of Islam, Art of the Mamluks, Esin Atil, Smithsonian Institution Press, Washington D.C., 1981 nr.125. This a rug with a cup motif design late 15th-century rug from Mamluk Sultane of Cairo, Egypt. It is exhibited at the Washington D.C. The Textile Museum, R.16.1.2 . The layout of this rug is characteristic of the smaller, almost square Mamluk carpet. A wide border encloses the field, divided into horizontal units consisting of a central square flanked above and below by rectangular panels. The height of the rectangular panels is approximately one-third that of the square and is equal to the width of the border. The corners of the central square are cut into triangles, creating an octagon with green ground. The octagon contains a blue polylobed medallion, which encloses an eight-pointed star with a multipetaled rosette in the core. The area between the star and the lobed medallion has floral motifs springing outward from the arms of the star. The angles of the octagon bear eight isolated and irregular polygons with a red ground; each of these units is adorned with a multipetaled rosette enclosed by a square with papyrus motifs springing from its sides and corners. The field of the octagon is filled with similar papyrus sprays, some of which appear to grow from the eight stemmed cups placed between the polygons. The triangles in the corner bear a checkerboard pattern with a stylized lotus blossom (or fleur-de-lis) in each segment. The compositional layout of the rug is reminiscent of the illuminated frontispieces, which reveal similar proportions and internal divisions. Radiating designs of geometric components filled with floral motifs are a characteristic feature of Mamluk art...

Turkish Court Manufactury Rugs were woven in the Egyptian workshops founded by Ottoman Empire in the 16th century. Those carpets were woven in Egypt, following the paper cartoons probably created in Istanbul and sent to Cairo at that time. The source of carpet comes from the book Seven Hundred of Oriental Carpets, Hanna Erdmann, University of California Press, 1971 fig.165. The model of this rug comes from Berlin Museum, Inv. Nr. I 10. Ottoman Carpet, Cairo about 1540-5. Acquired in 1905 as a gift from von Dirksen. Carpets of this sort, of course, are preserved in great numbers, but the Berlin piece was the most beautiful. Mamluk details of design which have persisted in the central medallion prove that it belonged to the earliest examples of this group, which about 1540 replaced the Mamluk carpets made in Cairo up to that time. The design of the rug is interpreted by our designers with four corners floral medallions, and soft colors are used for this rug. Color summary: 5 colors in total, most used 4 colors are; Natural Wool Color 320 (Specially Washed) Moss Green 27 (Spurge – Indigo) Midnight Blue 347 (Spurge – Madder Root – Indigo) Lucario Blue 342 (Spurge – Madder Root – Indigo) Group: Islamic Rugs...
