About the Item

Antique Ghiordes Silk Prayer Rug This stunning antique Ghiordes silk rug showcases the traditional prayer niche (mihrab) design, a hallmark of Turkish weaving from the town of Ghiordes (Gördes), renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship and sacred motifs. Measuring approximately 182 x 132 cm, the rug features a deep rust-red central field forming the prayer arch, framed by two elegant columns with stylized capitals. Above the arch, a sky-blue spandrel delicately decorated with scrolling vine and floral motifs symbolizes the heavens, a common element in devotional carpets. Surrounding the mihrab is an expansive, layered border system in warm ivory and golden hues, adorned with geometric and botanical patterns, reflecting the harmonious blend of Ottoman aesthetics and Islamic symbolism. Woven in fine silk, the rug radiates a natural sheen and luxurious texture, ideal for collectors or as a refined decorative accent. Its excellent condition and spiritual design make it a rare and valuable piece, emblematic of the cultural and artistic legacy of Anatolian prayer rugs.
