I noticed a little repair in the field please see picture 9th. It was professionally done and not visible at all. It measures 4\'8\"x6\'9\". This classically designed Avanos prayer rug (sejjade) is woven on natural ivory wool warps and natural ivory hand-spun wool for the wefts. This collectible museum quality prayer rug has all natural dyes derived solely from organic plant sources.

The pile condition of this early antique weaving exhibits overall medium pile. The top and the bottom endings are both original and complete with both endings now sewn secure to prevent any future loss of structure.  

This beautiful antique Avanos prayer rug was found being used as a wall hanging in a smoke-free, pet-free home: Professionally cleaned to museum standards to save you added expense. Itis ready to go back up on a wall in the home or the office as a classic specimen of early antique Anatolian textile art.
