Description | 18th Century Anatolian Sivas Fragment Rug Size 130 x 144 cm Stock No:1631 | 19th Century Anatolian Milas Rug Size 128 x 178 cm Stock No:1614 | Early 19th Century Central Anatolian Konya Prayer Rug Size 96 x 132 cm Stock No:1569 | 18th Century Anatolian Ghıordes Rug Size 122 x 160 cmWith 'floating' columns and an enlarged 'mosque lamp' motif dominating the red field of the mihrab, this so-called 'Basra Ghiordes ' prayer rug belongs to a subgroup of 18th century red-ground west Anatolian Ghiordes and Kula single niche rugs that preserve many of the characteristics of their 17th century 'Transylvanian' precursors.Among several examples published by Stefano Ionescu in 'Antique Ottoman Rugs in Transylvania', 2005, Cat. 216-220, it most closely resembles Cat. 216, an early 18th century rug formerly in the Evangelical Parish Church and now in the Brukenthal Museum, Sibiu, Romania (M.1625), with which it shares the rosette, palmette and leaf bracket primary border as well as the highly stylized jagged ascending plant design in the blue-ground spandrels and floral panel above. Interestingly, when inverted (as it would have been woven), the hanging ornament morphs into a well-drawn ibrik (ewer) motif.Stock No:1635 | 19th Century Central Anatolia Mudjur Prayer Rug Size 128 x 157 cm Stock No:1609 Niche design Mujur carpets were highly popular during the 19th century, selling to all the regions of the Islamic world. They are often very realistically portrayed in genre paintings by Western orientalist painters depicting scenes from North African bazaars. Early examples such as this red-ground Mujur display a widely conceived mihrab form and stand out due to their balanced compositions and rich range of brilliant colours. The field and border motifs were rigidly fixed by tradition, but there was a certain latitude in the design of the field. This piece shows a striking tree motif which dominates the centre of the field; linked to its tip by fine lines, it is effectively suspended from it.Very good overall condition and strong unfaded colours,Good high pile on it.
