Good Antique Tekke Carpet Room Size

1900 - 1920
Description

This is a fine example of a hand woven Tekke Turkman carpet dating from the early 20th century, circa 1920. The carpet is more finely woven than many and has great detail to its design. With five rows of fourteen Tekke gul medallions the carpet has typical design and colour palette with madder red, ivory and black shades. In this instance the red is a rich blood red and the black and ivory look very stylish against it. The pile is low and even and incredibly soft to handle. All in all, a very attractive room sized carpet with a lot of character and style. This measures 341 cms by 243 cms and is in excellent condition, cleaned and ready for use in the home.

UK insured delivery is £25

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Tekke carpets originate from Central Asian Turkmen nomadic weaving traditions, characterised by their signature repeating octagonal gul motifs set against a rich crimson or deep red wool field.

These carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a wool foundation, using natural dyes to produce deep red, navy, ivory, and dark brown tones.

Authentic pieces feature asymmetrical hand-knotted wool construction, fine knotting density, flat-woven ends, and subtle variations in dye saturation known as abrash.

A red Tekke carpet serves as a grounding focal point, pairing effectively with dark mahogany furniture in traditional settings or adding warmth and pattern contrast to modern minimalist interiors.

Vacuum gently without a rotating beater bar, rotate periodically to distribute foot traffic evenly, blot spills immediately with a damp cloth, and utilise specialist rug cleaners for periodic maintenance.
