SOLD
A truly pristine specimen of the Shirvan variety of Prayer Carpet. This is a stately, classic design that exemplifies the elegance achieved in this special class of weaving. A mid-19th Century piece. The square shape is belied by this photo as the rug was photographed from a slight angle. The actual piece is nearly square -- a rarity in itself.
