Antique White Ground Anatolian Tulu Prayer Rug
About the Item
The overall composition of this niche design rug relates it to a group of white ground central Anatolian prayer rugs, mostly woven with more traditional motifs. The primitive nature of the drawing imparts here a cave-like appearance to the niche. The use of silky Angora mohair wool (filik in Turkish) is characteristic of the most precious Tulus.
