Ersari chuval, early 20th century
Measurements: 94cm x 158cm
135 Knots per inch
Price: £320
This is a finely knotted Ersari chuval. The knots are asymmetric open to the left and the knots are packed in vertically with 15 to the inch. It is worth inspecting these construction details to understand pieces better. The colours are unusual for an Ersari with a very strong green and an apricot, for this reason I place it in the early 20th century rather than 19th. The backing has been removed to allow it to be used as a small rug.
Condition:
Good condition with a little wear.
