Turkish Prayer Rug 1586

This exquisite 19th-century Anatolian Konya Ladik rug features a distinguished prayer design rendered with remarkable artistry. Its most striking attribute is the exceptionally wide border, woven in one of the most elegant and expressive motifs associated with the Konya weaving tradition. The rug’s harmonious palette—achieved through the use of natural vegetable dyes—combines rich shades of red, blue, green, and yellow, each softened with age into a beautifully balanced composition.

This finely woven piece comes from the private collection of a San Francisco rug connoisseur and exemplifies the cultural heritage, craftsmanship, and aesthetic refinement that define the finest Central Anatolian rugs.
