About the Item

This classic Tekke Turkmen main carpet from Central Asia draws a configuration of quartered ‘guls’ alternating with cruciform ‘ghurbagheh’ or ‘frog’ type minors. This piece is longer than most of its type with twelve rows of four quartered guls. The knotted pile is plush with a velvet handle. The borders of this piece are reminiscent of tent-bands woven by the Turkmen.
