I have been dreaming about the border of this fragment of 2 halves of this 19th century kilim ever since I laid eyes on it!

So much art in the world!!
Especially in Anatolia!!
The lyrics of a superhit ’90s Bollywood song “Dil Se Re” describe my reaction to this border
“…Jab Dil se aah nikli thi” (..when a cry rose from the heart)
