Bidspirit auction | IMPORTANT AND MONUMENTAL KAYSERI TURKISH
IMPORTANT AND MONUMENTAL KAYSERI TURKISH ANTIQUE, PALACE SIZE (9.40 m²) - Exceptional, rare, and monumental palace-size collectible rug, Turkish made from the prestigious Kayseri region, datable to the first third of the 20th century (interwar period, approximately 90 years old). Measuring an impressive 9.40 meters in length, this piece of great grandeur and historical prestige stands out for its intricate and very fine continuous floral pattern (all-over pattern). The design exhibits impeccable geometric symmetry that flows harmoniously across the entire field. Entirely hand-woven with exceptionally high-quality wool on a high knot-density structure, it reveals a sophisticated and unusual period color palette: a background in greenish-beige (sage) and vine tones, richly ornamented with botanical motifs in soft shades of old rose, dried rose, dark blue, and exquisite terracotta accents. A museum-quality piece of high-end decoration, ideal for embassies, noble halls, or high-antiquarian projects, combining the technical mastery and robustness of traditional Anatolian craftsmanship with an aesthetic sobriety very rare for these dimensions. It bears the mark of provenance and is in very good overall structural condition, consistent with its age and historical relevance. Dimensions 379 x 248 cm.
