About the Item

Rare Southwest Turkmenistan Chodor Rug, Circa 1850 – A Timeless Piece of Nomadic Art Step into history with this extraordinary 19th-century Chodor rug from Southwest Turkmenistan. This rare piece captures the beauty and craftsmanship of traditional nomadic weaving. This antique Chodor rug is more than a floor covering; it's an artistic heritage that brings the warmth, spirit, and vibrant culture of tribal life directly into your home. Crafted around 1850, this Chodor rug showcases the iconic Tauk-Nuska guls—an intricate octagonal design with stylised horned animals with two heads symbolizing unity and tradition. The chestnut-brown field, with four columns of fourteen Tauk-Nuska guls, alternates with smaller Juval guls, creating a rhythm and harmony that reflects the spirit of Turkmen nomads. The guls’ unique quartered, diagonal arrangement stands out, adding depth and a visual journey through the handwoven pattern. Each element of this rug is alive with meaning. The ivory border contrasts beautifully with the warm chestnut tones, framing the intricate designs in a way that draws the eye and enhances any room. The vibrant colours in this rug represent more than just art—they echo the timeless values and traditions of Turkmen tribal communities. Owning this piece connects you with a rich history that continues to inspire collectors and museums worldwide. Imagine this one-of-a-kind rug as a centrepiece in your space, a piece that adds warmth, character, and a sense of cultural legacy to your home. Its robust colouration, coupled with the graceful charm of the nomadic design, infuses any room with elegance and a story that transcends time. This Chodor rug is more than a collector’s item; it's a cherished piece of heritage, offering the timeless beauty of tribal art with unmatched quality.
