"Cuval Balikesir - Anatolia. Circa 1880. 116 X 70 Cm"
Extraordinary Cuval from Balikesir in Anatolia. Woven and embroidered wool on wool in the traditional way. Cuval are cereal transport bags once used by the nomadic populations of the Anatolian plateaus. I let you observe and admire the care and special attention given to the work on an everyday object!! This one is a real marvel, the weaving is extremely precise, it is great art. Another characteristic and not the least, this old piece has almost never seen the light of day. Which explains its absolutely impeccable condition and the intact brilliance of its plant shades. Rare collector's item!! Circa 1880 Perfect condition Dim: 116 x 70 cm Laurent Beauty of Kilims
