A comparable example to the present lot is in the Pergamon museum, Berlin, as noted by Alexander, Alexander, op cit, p. 190. However, here there is enough of the fragment to see what the piece would have looked like in its entirety, see Spuhler. F., Oriental Carpets in the Museum of Islamic Art, Berlin, London, 1988, pp. 54 & 203, pl. 60. The design to the present lot appears more ornate than that cited by Spuhler.
