Antique Turkmen Asmalyk, Yomut Tribes, Trans-caspian Steppes, Turkmenistan, Central Asia.
£2,500 $3,188 €3,020
This magnificent Turkmen Asmalyk was made by the Yomut tribes in the Middle Amu Darya region of Turkmenistan during the mid 19th century. To see the wonderful mix of colours, particularly the glowing mid-blue, then please look at the close-up images.
Asmalyks were made in pairs and were part of the bride''s dowry. They were hung from the flanks of the wedding camel while the bride rode to her wedding and would afterwards, be presented to her future husband along with the rest of her dowry weavings. The asmalyks would then be hung up in the wedding yurt for the rest of their married lives together and would symbolise power and fertility.
This is a very collectable weaving from an ancient tradition that sadly, is now gone.
