1940's Turkoman Turkish Carpet

About the Item

77144 Distressed Vintage Turkish Turkoman Rug, 02'11 x 04'01. A Turkish Turkoman rug is a handwoven carpet from the Turkoman tribes. These rugs are renowned for their geometric patterns, especially the gul motif, and rich color palette dominated by reds, browns, and blues. Made from high-quality wool and sometimes silk, they feature high knot density for durability and detailed designs using the asymmetrical knot. Turkoman rugs hold cultural and symbolic significance, reflecting the weaver's heritage and tribal affiliations, with notable variations among different tribes like Tekke, Yomut, and Ersari.​​ This distressed vintage Turkish Turkoman rug, hand-knotted with meticulous craftsmanship, exudes a timeless charm through its intricate patterns and rich color palette. Dominating the central field are rows of traditional gul motifs, each meticulously outlined in shades of deep red and black. These motifs, emblematic of the Turkoman tribes, symbolize the tribe's heritage and carry a sense of identity and pride. Surrounding the central motifs are alternating bands of geometric designs, each echoing the precise artistry for which Turkoman weavers are renowned. The rug's border showcases an exquisite interplay of diamonds and hexagons. These geometric patterns not only provide a harmonious frame for the central field but also add a rhythmic complexity that captivates the viewer's eye. The use of contrasting colors within the borders enhances the visual depth, creating a striking balance that highlights the central guls. The subtle variations in red, ranging from deep crimson to lighter hues, demonstrate the natural dyeing techniques that contribute to the rug's authentic character. Symbolically, the rug is imbued with the cultural essence of the Turkoman tribes. The recurring geometric patterns and the guls are not merely decorative but carry meanings tied to protection, unity, and the natural world. The deep red background, a hallmark of Turkoman rugs, signifies power and vitality, while the interspersed geometric elements add layers of symbolism related to strength and prosperity. This vintage Turkish rug is not just a piece of decor but a narrative woven through generations, offering a glimpse into the rich tapestry of Turkoman tradition and artistry. Distressed.
