Object Description
Dating from 1870-1875 we have this wonderful early antique Melas rug, full of vibrant colours that you would expect from the Anatolian weavers from the village of Milas (Melas). Often Melas weavers produced fine prayer rugs, this early rug uses the scrolling zig-zag design in one column in the centre, flanked by two further borders of abstract floral leaf designs. A rare and collectable antique rug, over 145 years old.
We offer the service of viewing any of our carpets & rugs in-situ anywhere in the UK. Since 1990 we have travelled to London weekly visiting customers, throughout Surrey and Hampshire and down to Dorset frequently too. Trips to Scotland are not uncommon for us as-well, and we would be very happy to visit you too wherever your location.
Please do request a home visit to see this antique Melas rug at home, where you can select a convenient day and time for you.
