Velvets with designs based around repeated eight-lobed medallions, often filled with tulip motifs, were commonly produced in Ottoman Bursa from the late 16th century. They continued in production into the 1700s. Ths is an unusual variant because of the large secondary motifs: sizeable carnations flanked by broad saz leaves. A similar design is found in the border. An example of a catma with a matching design to the present lot is in the L. A. Mayer Museum for Islamic Art, Jerusalem (acc.no.T.594-78).
Smaller carnation motifs are found a textile integrated into a cope in the Sergiev-Posad Museum Preserve, Zagorsk (acc.no.2287). A donation inscription on the cope suggests that it was endowed to the monastery in the year 1652, giving a terminus ante quem for the manufacture of that textile and an approximate date for ours (Nurhan Atasoy et al. Ipek: the Crescent and the Rose, London, 2001, p.248).
