Rare and important UCHAK (Asia Minor, Turkey), end of the 17th and beginning of the 18th century, decoration "With dragons"
On a chestnut background stand out four floral medallions, burgundy, in mandorla, serrated. They are surrounded by four representations "with dragons", with "hairy" paws and oblong crenellated bodies in old gold and stylized entomological form. A sowing of flowers, arrowheads and small symbolic shapes complete the whole. Small old gold border with small multicoloured St Andrew's crosses. This decoration is reminiscent of a certain Armenian-Caucasian influence. Great rarity.
