Yomut Torba, second half 19th century

Measurements: 42cm x 86cm

98 Knots per inch

Price: £420

An attractive Yomut Torba with two large Kepse guls picked out in lovely colours including a fresh blue. Note the edges of surrounding guls disappearing under the border giving an impression of infinity. I love the plum red that you see on Yomut pieces especially when abrashed as can be clearly seen on the elem end of this piece. The typical reciprocal borders flank the white main border which provides a frame for the central field. A very nice example of type with its original backing.

Condition:

Some old moth damage and loss to the tassles.
