Antique Iranian Kalamkari Prayer Mat
Located in London, GB
Antique Iranian Kalamkari prayer mat
Persian, Late 19th Century
Height 128cm, width 92cm
Crafted in the late 19th century by skilled Iranian craftsmen, this cotton prayer mat features a plethora of religious and nature-inspired motifs.
Its surface is adorned with a selection of patterns and motifs created using the traditional woodblock printing technique called kalamkari (or Qalamkari). The 400 years old technique originating from Isfahan, utilises only natural and local materials, celebrating and supporting the local communities.
A selection of repetitive, organic motifs adorns the cotton textile. The patterns are coloured in various shades of red, cream, and blue, their design inspired by religious Islamic architecture, in particular that of a mosque. The central prayer niche (also called a mihrab) is identical in shape to that of the arch-shaped prayer niches found in mosques. Arabic markings feature above it.

Antique Hand-Embroidered Cotton Suzani, Buhkara, Uzbekistan
Located in London, GB
Antique hand-embroidered cotton Suzani, Buhkara, Uzbekistan
Uzbekistan, 19th century
Length 227cm, width 161cm
This exquisite Suzani textile was handcrafted in 19th century Bukhara, Uzbekistan.
The Suzani features an interesting geometric design and a vibrant array of colours, with red flowers, typical of the Bukhara region, taking centre stage amidst lush green vines, flowers and leaves. Additional elements in yellow, blue, and red adorn the textile.
Suzanis are large embroidered textile panels that originated from nomadic tribes in Central European countries. Primarily used as protective covers within yurts, they served to safeguard belongings and other textiles.
Traditionally, suzanis would be made in multiple parts, allowing several people to work on its creation. Signs of such collaborative work are visible on the join marks in the piece and contribute to the striking composition of the Suzani.
Usually made as part of a wedding dowry, suzanis were believed to bring good fortune to the bride and groom in their joint family life. The creation of a Suzani began with the careful drawing of a pattern onto the fabric, a feature still visible on the one in Mayfair Gallery...
