A Carpet Shop in the Heart of Sultanahmet
On Divanyolu Street — the road the Ottoman sultans once walked — Yurdan Carpet keeps a private archive of the finest handwoven carpets in Istanbul. Genuine Hereke silk, Persian Isfahan, antique cocoon silk and museum-grade wool pieces, each chosen one by one, each available by private inquiry.
Genuine, hand-knotted, documented
No machine-made pieces, ever. We show you the knots, the natural dyes and the silk under light — and every carpet leaves the shop with its provenance explained.
Insured worldwide delivery
Choose your carpet in the shop or online; we handle packaging, customs and insured shipping to your door, anywhere in the world.
