Hardcover. Condition: New. Softcover. New book. 1998, 92 items, 72 color illus. The Sailers closed down their gallery in Salzburg in 1988; this is the end of their stock. This serves then as a sort of catalogue from this rug dealer. About half are Turkish kilims, mostly 18th and 19th centuries; there is an unusual 14th-15th century one (based on C-14 dating) from East / Central Anatolia, as well as suzani, 2 Tadjik kilims, and Caucasian embroideries, rugs and kilims. The Turkish kilims that are illustrated are a 16th - 17th century Ottoman workshop kilim, and village or nomad kilims from Balikesir, Konya (3 kilims), Karapinar, Sevas (3), and simply Central Anatolia (26 kilims). There are about 20 rugs, mostly 19th century or earlier: a 16th-17th century Lotto, a 17th century Oushak medallion carpet, 17th century carpets from Aksaray, and East Central Anatolia (with references in the description to similar pieces in the Kirchheim and Alexander collections), 3 Konya, a Yomud main carpet, Caucasian carpets from Kuba, Talish, Kazak and Shirvan.
