Lot Essay

The design on this kilim and the colouring of the motifs are similar to an example attributed to Sarikavak/Sivrihisar in a private collection (J.Mellaart, U. Hirsch and B. Balpinar: The Goddess from Anatolia, Milan, 1989, vol.I, p.23, fig.4). Each also lacks a formal side border while they share the same end border design.
