About the Item

The Turkmen or Turkoman people are settling in villages in Afghanistan a 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.
