FAQs

Tekke carpets originate from the nomadic and settled Turkmen tribes of Central Asia, traditionally characterised by their deep madder red grounds and systematic rows of guls, which are octagonal primary motifs.

Authentic pieces are hand-knotted using locally sourced wool for both the pile and the foundation, often employing natural vegetable dyes derived from plants, roots, and insects to achieve rich hues.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the density of the knotting, irregularities in the symmetrical guls indicating hand production, natural dye variations across the abrash, and the condition of the wool structure.

Such carpets anchor contemporary living spaces by providing rich colour, historical texture, and geometric contrast when paired with minimalist furnishings or classic leather seating.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without rotating brushes, keeping the carpet away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, and utilizing professional rug cleaners specialising in textiles.
