The source of the rug comes from the book Orient Star - A Carpet Collection, E. Heinrich Kirchheim, Hali Publications Ltd, 1993 nr.172. This is a unique, lacking of formal arrangement design 18th-century rug from the Central Anatolia area, Turkey. The field drawing is gardens with a pond with Ladik (the name of the town, north of Konya) prayer-like borders. Among specialists, Anatolian carpets and kilims are believed to record symbols of ancient values and ideas. This tradition dates back several millennia and was only displaced during the industrial age. The Anatolian kilim design tradition probably owes its lucky survival to the fact that pile-woven carpets look more precious and would already have had a higher prestige value several millennia ago. Kilim weaving was, therefore, able to survive undisturbed within an intact cultural context for a long period of time. The design of this rug is interpreted with a series of borders and our designers choose soft colors for this rug.
