About the Item

Fine hand-knotted Tekke Turkman Bokhara rug or Turkmen rug Beautiful handknotted Bukhara Turkman Main Carpet. Main carpets are large rugs - regular Bukhara rugs are maximum 7 x 5 ft. The rug is in very good condition, no restoration or repair. One of the most impressing Bukharas I have seen for years. Typical long and narrow size of the old tribal production. Rare antique tribal Turkmen carpet in great condition. These carpets are named "Gentlemens Carpet" since in the late 19th century carpets of this type often decorated libraries in British Houses and Villas. After Dinner it was common that the Gentlemen separated from the Ladies and went into the library to smoke cigars and have a drink. The Turkmen or Turkoman people are settling in villages in Afghanistan an Turkmenistan near the Persian border. Their origin is tribal nomadic, but most members of the tribes have settled in villages in the last decades. Typical for most Turkoman carpets is their geometric design made of wide borders and a repeating inner field with symbols called "Gul" The design of the Gul and the borders tell a lot, which tribe of Turkoman made the rug. This rug was made by the Tekke tribe. Other well known tribes are Ersari, Youmud, Salor, Chodor and Saryk. Each ribe has typical design elements and weaving styles. This rug has a wool with silk-like shine. There are color changes within the filed called "Abrash" which comes from different batches of wool. This results typiocal stripes of different color. Since tribal people usually have smaller portable looms, it is normal that they make small rugs. Most Turkmen rugs found are between 4 x 6 ft and 8 x 11 ft. The condition of this beautiful rug is very good. It has mostly full pile, fringe and selvedge are in good condition. • Beautiful antique rug • All hand made, hand knotted • Pile pure wool, warp and weft wool • Traditional design, very nice rug • Condition: Very good pile, great condition.

Located in Lohr, Bavaria, DE
Large oversized tribal rug Afghan Ersari Turkoman or Turkmen rug - "one of a kind" decorative tribal Art. Ersari Rugs: Timeless Handcrafted Treasures from Central Asia Ersari rugs are iconic pieces of art, handwoven by the skilled artisans of the Ersari Turkoman tribes in Turkmenistan. Known for their exceptional craftsmanship and deep cultural significance, these rugs bring a touch of history, tradition, and vibrant color to any space. With their striking designs and durable quality, Ersari rugs are a perfect blend of artistry and functionality, making them a highly sought-after choice for rug collectors and interior design enthusiasts alike. Crafted with Tradition: Materials & Techniques Ersari rugs are made from the finest wool sourced from sheep grazing in the vast, rugged landscapes of Central Asia. The wool is carefully spun and dyed using natural, plant-based dyes, resulting in rich, earthy tones that remain vibrant over time. Many Ersari rugs also incorporate cotton to enhance their strength and longevity. The knots used in Ersari rugs are tight and intricate, a hallmark of their craftsmanship, making each piece not only a functional floor covering but also a durable and long-lasting work of art. Vibrant Colors & Patterns Ersari rugs are renowned for their bold color palettes and striking geometric designs. The rugs typically feature shades of deep red, rust, burgundy, and earthy brown, combined with accents of blue, yellow, and cream. These colors are derived from natural dyes, giving the rugs their unique, rich hues. The design motifs commonly include medallions, repeating patterns, and symbolic "gul" motifs, which hold deep cultural meaning within the Ersari tribe. These rugs are a visual representation of the tribe’s nomadic heritage, and the color combinations often symbolize nature, life, and spiritual beliefs. The Ersari Tribe: A Rich Cultural Legacy The Ersari Turkoman tribe, known for its nomadic lifestyle, has been weaving rugs for centuries. These rugs not only serve as practical items in everyday life, such as floor coverings in tents or yurts, but also represent the artistic expression of the tribe. The Ersari people take pride in their tradition of rug-making, with each design reflecting the environment, culture, and beliefs of the tribe. The geometric and floral patterns found in Ersari rugs often tell stories of the tribe’s past, their connection to nature, and the symbolism behind the designs. Why Choose an Ersari Rug? Ersari rugs are more than just floor coverings; they are timeless works of art that embody the history and craftsmanship of the Ersari tribe. With their exceptional durability and stunning aesthetic, these rugs make an ideal addition to any home. Whether you're looking for a piece that tells a story, adds warmth and character to your space, or enhances your collection of traditional textiles, an Ersari rug offers both beauty and history in one unique piece. The Turkmen or Turkoman people are settling in villages in Afghanistan an Turkmenistan near the Persian border. Their origin is tribal nomadic, but most members of the tribes have settled in villages in the last decades. Typical for most Turkoman carpets is their geometric design made of wide borders and a repeating inner field with symbols called "Gul" The design of the Gul and the borders tell a lot, which tribe of Turkoman made the rug. The rug listed has 36 octagonal main Guls (eight edged) in 3 rows divided by smaller minor Guls. The golden / beige copper color is very unusual since most Turkoman rugs are made in a bright tomato red. This one has a wool with silk-like shine, a color best defined as very light copper combined with ivory and brown motives. Since tribal people usually have smaller portable looms, it is normal that they make small rugs. Most Turkmen rugs found are between 4 x 6 ft and 8 x 11 ft. For this reason, this 13 x 10 ft rug...
