PRICE ON APPLICATION

428 x 211cm // 14’ x 6’ 10”

This antique Kelleigh carpet renders beautify the Minar Hani design with its yellow medallion. It has been fully restored by us with rewoven sections faithfully following the original weave. We believe the carpet to be reduced in length from its original length . It was likely once part of a set of three or four carpets ours being the principal central carpet which might have been flanked by two runners and used for the encamped court of a Khan.
