12143 Vintage Turkish Kars Mosque Carpet Floor Cushion 43x109cm (1.5 x 3.7ft)

Folk art village made rustic Turkish Mosque carpet cushion from the Kars area of Turkey's Eastern Anatolian region - originally a family village storage sack but they make great strong floor or sofa cushions. This Turkish floor cushion has hand-knotted carpet pile weave on the front and flat kilim weave on the reverse and measures approximately 43x109cm (1.5 x 3.7ft) - we love gorgeous colourful striped back as much as the front although the lovely wooly mosque pattern is very beautiful and the colours are stunning in this lovely cushion.  This cushion has an intentional slit in the kilim back of the cushion together with an opening at one end which would need to be sewn up if filling it with something, this is original rustic folk art workmanship. Weavings from Kars are often recognised by their warm browns, soft pinks and greys, beige, orange and terracotta colour ways and are generally very village looking in that they are not straight or uniform thus giving lots of character and appeal.

If you purchase this item unstuffed you will need to sew it up to close it as it is an original piece and the tribes people don't use zips! If you would like your cushion stuffed, please purchase the recommended sized filler by ticking the box next to the cushion to add the filler to your basket, we will then sew it up ready for you.

(If the recommend filler has a Hollow Fibre Size 1, 2, 3 or 4 description (HF1, HF2, HF3, HF4) then it means we use hollow fibre duvets in whatever size fills the cushion, you can also use your own and sew the cushion up yourself after). 

Note: we do not ship some of the larger fillers outside the UK Mainland, this is to keep postage costs to a minimum.
