Lady's Embroidered Velvet Anteri Robe

Discover one of the highlights of the IAMM collection, the Anteri robe, a front-opening garment with a thousand tendrils. Worn by women at formal occasions or by brides, this robe exemplifies high-status attire of the late Ottoman period. Adorned with intricate golden embroidery on midnight-blue velvet, the design demonstrates striking symmetry and chiaroscuro. The hand-stitched patterns feature intertwining scrolls, split palmettes and Chinese cloud bands, reflecting a sophisticated blend of Rumi and Khatai motifs. It is a perfect example of arabesque design that displays the adaptation and adoption of universal Islamic aesthetics into regional artisanship.
