The centre of the field is taken up by a massive cross motif, each of its four arms ending in two crescent moon shapes. An eight-pointed star constitutes the central point of the cross, with eight red arrows radiating outwards. Each corner of the field contains a circular flower with a serrated outline, divided into triangular segments by an inner eight-pointed star whose tips end in arrowheads. The red vines interspersed between the five primary designs are drawn in a specific style that is characteristic of embroideries by the Kungrat tribe. Similar to the war-like Lakai, the Kungrat continued their free nomadic lifestyle in southern Uzbekistan until the 1920s, when they were subdued for good by Soviet troops. Like the previous lot, this is a decorative \"ilgich\" cover. \u2013 Good condition.","index":"A86\/58","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"","published":"VOK, IGNAZIO, Suzani 2.

It is heavily patinated and appears to be very old. One indication of its age is the combination of green and aubergine, two complementary colours, in the primary motifs. The high degree of abstraction seen in the ornamentation of the niches is a striking feature of the design. Three large niche formations of diagonally opposed shapes are arranged side by side. The comb-like outlines of the arches create an animated overall impression and a sense of excitement. Red house-like shapes, also outlined in combs, are interspersed between them singly or in pairs. The light brown ground of the field is woven from camel hair, a rare feature. According to Hirsch, the kilim is from a village east of Karapinar. \u2013 Various missing sections, the side finishes have not survived.

Each blossom is surrounded by an inner green vine decorated with black fruit, possibly grapes, and a solid wide outer ring composed of colourful segments. The rings touch in several places, and two of them abut the secondary border at the upper end of the field. The diamond-shaped free spaces created by the primary design contain smaller circular flowers and twigs. The composition appears vibrant and the style of drawing is a rustic one. It is striking that the main border of circular blossoms and diagonal twigs, their ends spiralling inwards, displays a large number of the same black grapes as those seen in the field design. A suzani in the Wolf Collection shows the same black grapes in the main border. This very rare suzani was probably made in a village in the Karabag region situated between Bokhara and Shakhrisyabz. Comprising only a very few examples, this group has been little studied to date. \u2013 Slight signs of age and wear.

It lacks the characteristic feature of being a folk art product which tangibly links the other suzanis, despite their enormous differences in the details. The design \u2013 evidently conceived with precision by a specialised artist \u2013 and the overall impression of cool elegance rather associate this suzani with court art. Probably embroidered in a workshop and made to commission, it may have been influenced by Indian models in style. \u2013 Fine blue-black diagonals decorated with small flowers of the same colour cover the field in a diamond lattice composition. Each diamond encloses a slender blue-black, exactly symmetrical plant bearing either three green fan-like blossoms or three blue heart-shaped blossoms as well as aubergine and red buds or small blue-black leaves and buds. The plants are arranged into colour diagonals. Conceived in a specific style that dispenses with contrasting outlines in the motifs and additional decorative details, and embroidered in a palette that is highly uncharacteristic of suzanis, the field design resembles a wall of ceramic tiles, an effect that was probably fully intended. A suzani sold by us in November 2000 is vaguely comparable in field design. The border of four-pointed medallions filled with leaves and framed by diamond-shaped twigs bearing flowers adds a further surprise, being embroidered in just two shades of red. The marked contrast between the field and border makes this suzani appear like a carpet. \u2013 Very good condition, backed with canvas.","index":"A86\/67","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"RIPPON BOSWELL, auction A 55, 18th November 2000, # 115","published":"VOK, IGNAZIO, Vok Collection.

The only other Caucasian prayer kilim published to date, a typical Shirvan judging by the design and palette, was exhibited at the Munich V\u00f6lkerkundemuseum in 1985 (see Volkmann). The Vok example is less easy to attribute to a specific region. Its long narrow format is reminiscent of Akstafa prayer rugs, but in design it rather resembles Daghestan weavings, for instance the item illustrated by Sch\u00fcrmann. The field design of hooked diamonds enclosed in a hexagonal lattice of wide striped lines is drawn in the style of kilims and quite unlike knotted prayer rugs. The same is true for the border design of double hooks and diamonds, some of them brocaded as in Turkish flatweaves. \u2013 Slight signs of age and wear, good condition.","index":"A86\/71","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"VOLKMANN, MARTIN (ed.), Alte Orientteppiche.

It bears large palmette-like flowers in red and pink, with details picked out in gold and blue; pointing in different directions, they emphasise the sprawling character of the design. The composition is lively and informal, quite unlike the disciplined and precise appearance of other compositions from the same provenance.

Their tips extend beyond the sides of the field. Lateral diamonds of equal size are cut in half by the borders, and the corners of the field contain sections of four further diamonds. The weaver deliberately dispensed with the additional designs frequently encountered in Fars kilims. Woven in strong colours rich in contrast, her abstract composition focuses on essentials, and there is nothing to distract from its forceful and dynamic impact. The white diagonals provide structure in the dense design. The border design of stepped zig-zag bands distinguishes this kilim from comparable Qashqa\u2019i weavings which almost always display reciprocal trefoil borders. \u2013 Slight signs of age and wear, several stains and small holes. Good overall condition.","index":"A86\/85","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"TANAVOLI, PARVIZ, Persian Flatweaves.
