Lidya Suzani Carpet Gallery, Antalya

Fabulous shop! Beautiful range of suzanis, pashminas, cushion covers, carpets, and silk kaftans. I bought a beautiful silk kaftan for an excellent price. Service is great. Would highly recommend a visit when in Antalya.

The most beautiful shops in Old Town. There are two shops right across one another. Mehmet oversees one shop, and his “brother from another mother” oversees the leather shop. Combined, both shops exude beauty, elegance, and a soothing scent of old leather. The carpets are out of my budget this time around, but I hope that one day, I can return to make my first carpet purchase from Mehmet! He is extremely welcoming and knowledgeable. I didn’t walk out with nothing! The handmade Nubuck (suede) leather caps are worth a purchase—they make good gifts too. Excellent workmanship, and the smell of full-grain leather is just addicting!
