Description

The bread sofrehs from the Kamo region are unique and simplistic in design and examples from the 19th century through to the early 20th century are now pretty scarce and rare.
This sofreh is woven entirely in undyed sheep wool and camel-hair and exudes a powerful presence. Made circa 1900, this sofreh would have been extensively used for kneading dough to make the flat-bread (lavash) and because of their hard, daily use, few of this age would have survived.
Size: 1.10 x 0.94m (3' 7" x 3' 1").
Viewing by appointment only.
Internal Ref: BM/Kamo
