An excellent example of traditional Yatak or sleeping rug from Konya. These shaggy rugs were often intended to be used “upside down” with the underside on view and the fluffy pile serving as insulation from the ground. A very similar example is published in Butterweck & Oresch’s “Handbook of Anatolian Carpets” - Plate 23. #yatak #konya #derbentkonya #konyarug #centralanatolia #shagrug (at Heirloom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn7uf47P8rv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
