They were usually woven in pairs.A good chuval face that is very well drawn with six large ''Salor'' guls and Tekke chuval guls as secondary guls.

There is a slightly faded old repair on the edge of the upper middle gul as can be seen in the images.Stock Number: D-0544.All of our prices include FREE WORLD WIDE EXP...
