Magic Caravan is the American flagship of his Istanbul-based Arsah Carpets. All items are authentic & unique to Turkey, and to what was known geographically as Persia during the Ottoman Empire. As such, our unique selection of textiles & ceramics are carefully hand-crafted in Turkey, incorporating the various techniques of both ancient & modern traditions. From antique & vintage Turkish rugs to pe
stemals (hand-loomed Turkish bath towels, shawls, & robes), and handmade jewelry, we offer a beautiful glimpse into the rich culture that Turkey has long been known for. Our ceramic collection represents the three core styles of Turkey known as Myth, Iznik, and Relief, and all items, though we recommend hand-washing, are completely food safe! Please contact us with any questions you may have about products, pricing, or more! If your ever in Austin, Texas come join us for a Turkish coffee, or chai, and enjoy a most unique shopping experience!
