This exemplary Shahsevan sumak is as good, if not better, than most published pieces. The highly collectible design of fantastic animals in excellent condition with only superficial wear as shown. The composition of the central panel surrounded by two major borders is unusual and graphically powerful. The articulation and animation of the animals is among the best of this type. Size is 21x19 inches (54x49 cms), mid-19c. From a notable private collection. Please request the price.
