Mustafa Carpets - Since 1923

456 Hand Made Usak Palace

No 456 Usak Palace 6'x5'=30 Square feet USAK handmade carpets are very famous. USAK is the oldest known carpetmaking center in the world. Marko Polo mentioned carpet workshops when the Seljuk (Sell jewk) Sultans controlled the USAK region in the 13th century. Before this time, the Apostle Paul started churches in this area during the 1st century. This USAK handmade carpet is the product of long months of labor. Usak handmade carpets require great skill and patience since the weavers make and produce their own natural dyes, roll the wool by hand and use fine knots for a tight weave. The village women who weave these carpets live where the floors are wood, stone or packed earth and make them to be very useful, warm and long lasting. Each carpet is also a source of pleasure to their owners because it is unique and reflects not only the stories, models and designs of their village or region but also the personality of the weaver. In fact, designs vary from village to village - even when they are only several miles apart. We hope that this handmade carpet proves to be a joy and investment to you and will also make you think of the peoples of Turkey.
