I own three Yastiks and would be happy to receive feedback on age, origin and quality.

Hi Heinz,

All three look to me like they are from central Anatolia. The third one has a design characteristic of yastiks from Kirsehir. Could you post a full picture of that one, for our viewing pleasure?

Heinz,

What are the dimensions of the second, larger piece? Might it be a small rug, rather than a yastik?

Joel, I think you are right. It is too large for a yastik. Dimensions are 95x125 cm. I found something similar in an older auction catalogue.

All of them are very beautiful yastiks. Congrats. It seems to me that all of them are from Konya. Maybe the last (Şal model) one can be from Gelveri..

Thank you for the comments. I am glad you like my yastiks.

I agree with the Konya region. Nice collection you have there.
