| Reverse description | The field depicts a detailed reproduction of a 15th-century Aegean carpet design, featuring two highly stylised quadruped animals rendered in geometric form, flanking a central ornamental tree or medallion motif executed in the angular Anatolian weaving tradition. Interlocking geometric border patterns characteristic of Aegean carpet art surround the central panel. The circumferential legend 'GELENEKSEL TÜRK EL SANATLARI' curves around the upper portion of the field, while 'EGE HALISI - 15. YY.' appears along the lower periphery. The engraver's signature 'B. HOŞGÖL' is visible in the lower right field. |
