About the Item

This Antique Mudjur Meditation Prayer Rug (4'2" x 6'1") is a rare and remarkable example of Anatolian weaving, likely dating to the 1700s or earlier. Renowned for its rich, vibrant palette, it combines the intensity of traditional Anatolian reds with a striking yellow-ground border, creating a visually bold yet harmoniously balanced design. The rug’s strictly geometric patterns and motifs reflect the spiritual and meditative purpose of prayer rugs, while the precision of the weaving showcases craftsmanship comparable to fine Caucasian rugs. Ideal as a collector’s piece or a decorative focal point, this Mudjur rug brings cultural depth, historical significance, and visual impact to any interior. Its timeless design and saturated colors make it perfect for display in living rooms, studies, or gallery-style spaces, blending both artistry and functionality.
