Museum quality historical masterpiece with provenance and history inscribed in the formidable signature cartouche. One of a half dozen in different designs commissioned in the 1890s by Sultan Abdul Hamid IIโ€™s government for the Ottoman Pavilion at the landmark Paris World Expo. A comparable prayer rug from the same exclusive royal order was formerly in the collection of the Ottoman businessman Calouste Gulbenkian and currently is on display at the Gulbenkian Museum in Lisbon.

This is the first of the 6 to become available on the market for way over a century. Took me 4 years to finally acquire this 125 year old turquoise belle. When it was made the USA ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ was only 124 years old and Istanbul was still officially called Constantinople.
