Size ; 115x190 cm Central anatolia, sivas . Sivas Zara Armenian Rug: a Masterpiece of Heritage ​A story of history, woven knot by knot from the heart of Anatolia... ​Crafted by Armenian master weavers in the Sivas-Zara region between the late 19th and early 20th centuries (1870-1910), these rare pieces are far more than just rugs—they are true works of art. ​What makes them so unique? ​Pure Authenticity: Woven entirely from high-quality wool, from the warp to the pile, using vibrant dyes derived from natural botanical and organic sources. ​Architectural Aesthetic: The central "mihrab" (niche) design and geometric structures resembling ancient columns give these rugs a profound architectural character. ​The Language of Symbols: Every motif tells a story—from the "ram’s horn" (strength) and "hands-on-hips" (fertility) to the "life tree" and "amulet" patterns for protection. ​Exquisite Craftsmanship: Known for their high knot density and border decorations inspired by Seljuk Kufic calligraphy, these are considered "unique" treasures by collectors worldwide. ​A testament to the rich, multicultural heritage of Anatolia, bringing the elegance of the past into the present. ​
