This is a good example of a fine Turkmen kilim, known as 'dali', this translates to fabric or cloth. Older examples such as this have very fine weave, are paper thin and have a muted soft colour palette; later examples are of coarser weave with much heavier weight and bright clear colours. Woven on a simple narrow loom, these kilims are usually narrow in width and of long length. These would make a great cover for furniture or a throw to go over a bed.

This antique Turkmen Dali kilim dates from 1900 and displays a tribal style executed in a flatweave wool construction. The wool exhibits a warm brown ground colour enriched by bands of cream, terracotta, ochre, and dark navy. The decorative scheme consists of repeating horizontal bands filled with geometric chevrons and tribal motifs, creating a patterned flat surface with very slight wear. The piece measures 272 cm high, 136 cm wide, and 1 cm deep. In a contemporary home, this textile serves multiple practical functions. It provides a durable floor covering or runner for hallways and living spaces. Alternatively, it works effectively as a protective cover for furniture or as a decorative throw to place over a bed. The narrow proportions and fine weave allow for flexible placement across various rooms, adding traditional texture and pattern to interior spaces.

FAQs

Turkmen Dali kilims are traditional flat-woven textiles produced by nomadic and semi-nomadic tribes in Central Asia, characterised by intricate horizontal band patterns and geometric motifs woven without a pile.

Antique kilims are typically hand-spun from natural sheep wool and occasionally cotton or camel hair, using slit-weave or extra-weft floating techniques on vertical or horizontal looms.

Authentic antique examples feature natural vegetable dyes with subtle colour variations, fine hand-spun wool yarn, tribal geometric iconography, and minor weaving irregularities consistent with manual craft.

Position the flatweave rug on natural timber flooring alongside neutral furniture to create texture and warmth, or display it as a decorative wall hanging in contemporary spaces.

Vacuum gently using a suction-only attachment without a rotating brush bar, rotate periodically to ensure even wear, and treat liquid spills immediately by blotting with a clean, dry cloth.
