This antique Yomut carpet originates from Turkmenistan and dates to 1900, presenting a traditional tribal design hand-knotted from hand-spun wool with natural dyes. The deep red field displays repeating geometric diamond lattice patterns alongside classic Dyrnak gol emblems, all framed by intricate serrated border bands and decorated elem skirts in ivory, green, and mid blue tones. The piece shows light, age-related wear that is slightly heavier in certain areas, alongside a professionally completed small restoration to a section of the field, while the secure fringes and selvedges follow professional cleaning. Measuring 298 cm high, 194 cm wide, and 1 cm deep, this rectangular area rug suits placement on the floor of a gentleman's library, study, or living space to add warmth and cultural heritage beneath traditional or contemporary interior schemes.

FAQs

Turkmen Yomut carpets are handwoven textiles created by the nomadic Yomut tribe of Central Asia, historically recognised by their deep crimson tones and repeating geometric gol motifs.

These carpets are traditionally hand-knotted using hand-spun sheep wool for both the pile and the warp foundation, coloured with natural plant dyes to achieve dark red, navy, and ivory shades.

Authentic antique Yomut carpets exhibit subtle natural abrash colour variations, asymmetrical or hand-bound selvages, intricate elem end-panels, and a dense, flat-lying wool structure.

A dark red tribal carpet anchors neutral living spaces by providing geometric structure, rich colour contrast, and tactile warmth underneath modern timber or upholstered furniture.

Vacuum gently without a rotary brush, rotate the carpet periodically to ensure balanced light exposure, install a cushioned underlay, and address spills promptly with dry absorbent cloths.
