Antique Mucur 'Mudjar / Mujur' Prayer Rug, Turkish Central Anatolian Carpet
About the Item
This is an antique Mucur rug from Central Anatolia, the Kirsehir region with a red background, good condition, and beautiful color composition.
The town of Mudjar (or Mucur) is about twenty miles southeast of Kirsehir. The area has a long tradition of weaving, particularly prayer rugs. The main border in these specimens is classically composed of diamond shapes enclosing eight-pointed floral forms, while the prayer arch is long and sharply pointed, with a cross panel generally above the mihrab. The older rugs featured subdued earth shades of beige, rust, light blue, and apricot. In construction, there is nothing to distinguish the Mudjar from a dozen other varieties of Anatolian prayer rugs.

ARARAT RUGS
We know and believe that the geography we come from, our past, and our lifestyle are the most important bond between us to carry the oriental carpet art and culture to the next generations along with our core values in our ongoing growth journey.
We are aware that the way to achieve this goal and carry this priceless art and culture to the future depends on a lot of work with all our people every day while adhering to our core values.
For us, art is meaningful in the sense that it brings together various cultures around the world. It is an honor for us that oriental carpet art and culture have been instrumental in this for centuries and that we are a part of this business.
We are tirelessly keeping an eye on auction house information around the world about carpets. New York's Metropolitan, London's Victoria & Albert Museums, and other famous art museums, as well as small specialized museums that house private collections, and books about oriental carpets to collect information on outstanding carpet designs and patterns from around the world. It's our Self-improving and Self-developing culture.
As Turkish Culture of Hospitality, the Kurdish Culture of Generosity, and as Japanese Culture of Business Punctuality; are the most important values that this multicultural background has taught and bequeathed to us. It is essential and valuable for us that you feel this feeling not only by looking at our oriental carpets but from the moment you contact us.
