An early 20th-century Turkish Sivas carpet from around 1930, measuring approximately 335.3 × 670.8 cm (about 11’0″ × 22’0″). The composition centers on a medallion design over an ochre field, framed by an ochre-toned border — a warm, monochromatic color register characteristic of formal Sivas workshop production.
Sivas is a city in central-eastern Anatolia, historically a center of formal Turkish carpet production working in vocabularies derived from both Persian and Anatolian classical traditions. Long Sivas carpets at this scale are particularly suited to formal gallery and long living-room applications.
Hand-knotted wool. Authentic one-of-a-kind antique.
