About the Item

An unusually long prayer rug – and comparatively rare Gendje – in good condition. Above average centre field variation of colour and a particularly lively top Mihrab area to place in the direction of Mecca. The interior border with eight to ten consecutive colour and design variants in the hexagonal figures attest to its age, detail and collectibility. A very good example for the price.
