Description
Konya

The ancient central Turkish city of Iconium, it is the center of a large weaving area of many towns and villages, with a virtually continuous rug tradition going back either centuries, if not longer. All wool foundations are universal and designs are geometric, both for prayer and secular rugs. The weave is loose, but the long pile allows the tones of tomato red, clear yellow, greens, ivory and ambergine to shine. Only scatters and runners are woven, no large carpets. Because the wide range of types, styles, periods etc. There is no uniform valuation of the group but early ones of artistic importance fetch elevated prices.
