Milas Antique Rugs and Carpets

Antique Melas rugs from southwestern Turkey are exceedingly beautiful in the finnesse of their weave and drawing, and in the subtlety of their coloration. Famed particularly for their classic red- ground prayer rugs with simple niches or mihrabs, Melas weavers also produced long rugs with geometric patterns. The melas repertoire is mostly floral, although it is often so abstracted that this aspect is no longer immediately apparent. Read More about Milas / Melas and Karaova Turkish Village Rugs
