Rather surprisingly, top price on the day, € 79,200
($91,100, including 20% buyer's premium), was paid in the
room by a European dealer (almost certainly on behalf of
a private client) for a very bold 17th century Karapinar
medallion rug, despite the fact that it had ample amounts
of very high quality restoration. This striking rug is
somewhat reminiscent of the famous Cantoni Karapinar in
the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam (HALI 29, p.50).
