Karanfil Design in blue Topkapi The beautiful jacquard woven midA recent tip off from a friend in Istanbul alerted us to a talented silk hand weaver in Bursa, so we drove down to meet him and see his work. Kasim Bey is one of Turkeys rare treasures a man who has committed himself to preserving the dying art of silk hand weaving in Turkey a mission that is close to our hearts at Ottoman Silks.
