Product Information

Amazing decorative semi antique beautiful Turkish Kayseri carpet measuring approximately 204x297cm (6.8 x 9.9ft) excluding any fringes - we love this one, it has the most unusual out of the ordinary design for a carpet from Kayseri.  The central design and reds are a site to behold!  Kayseri is in Central Anatolia and rugs and carpets from here are generally finely woven with an all over floral Persian style design against a cream or cherry raspberry coloured background.  The weaving of these hand knotted rugs stopped a long time ago and we only now find semi antique pieces. These handmade rugs do not have a high pile, they are finely woven and quite flat giving a lovely worn antique look and feel. These Rugs are always wool pile with cotton warp/wefts.  Find out more about Rug Motifs, Symbols & Meaning here.

Kayseri is renowned for its major trade links as it is situated on the old the silk road - it has a fantastic bazaar and caravanserai where people have traded since 1500AD.  It was famous for its carpet and kilim weaving in the past, it is still however famous for it spicy dried cured beef “pastirma” and also the tasty “mantı” which is a meat filled dumpling! For information on our Underlays For Kilims & Rugs Look Here.
