Antique Yastik Turkish Multicolor 1850s Mat. This exceptional piece is a classic example of antique Turkish Yastiks, a traditional Turkish textile originally woven as a cushion cover or bolster end. Its compact size and robust, high-piled wool construction speak to its domestic, village origins, offering a rare glimpse into the intimate weaving traditions of 19th-century Anatolia. Size ?? Format: rectangular The palette is striking, utilizing powerful, naturally derived dyes that have matured beautifully over time. Rich terracotta and deep burnt orange tones are juxtaposed with areas of deep indigo and earthy sage, creating a vibrant multicolor jewel-tone scheme characteristic of the finest tribal weaving from this period. The use of undyed ivory wool provides sharp, graphic contrast to the saturated field colors.
