110 Antique Shirvan Prayer Rug Wall Art – Gallery-2

Antique Shirvan Rug with amazing geometric motifs

Lots of  Botehs  offering lessons in the subject of permutations and combinations- with the variation in colors and fillers used in the Botehs

Several animals roaming the main field.

And birds that have been sent off to fill up the borders to snack on little insects.

This aspect of highly developed borders is unique.

It is one of those rugs that elicit a fresh ‘wow’ with a creative element I hadn’t seen before, no matter how many times I revisit it!

73 X 36 inches

If provenance means anything to the buyer, this rug has provenance – it was previously owned by a famous rug book author James Opie.
