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.

Tekke main carpets originated among the Tekke tribe, one of the primary Turkmen nomadic groups of Central Asia. Traditionally woven by women on horizontal looms, these large textiles served as essential floor coverings inside yurts and represented major family heirlooms and status symbols.

These carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a wool warp and weft foundation. Symmetrical or asymmetrical knots are employed alongside natural vegetable dyes, resulting in deep madder reds, dark blues, ivory, and walnut shades.

Authentic Tekke carpets are identified by their distinctive octagonal gol motifs arranged in vertical rows, separated by secondary cross-shaped motifs. They typically feature fine knotting, subtle colour variations from natural dyes, and woven flatweave (elem) panels at both ends.

A Turkmen carpet functions as a foundational anchor in living rooms, dining areas, or study spaces. The deep madder red tone complements dark timber furniture, brass accents, and neutral modern upholstery, providing warmth and texture.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating beater bar to avoid pulling fibres. Clean spills immediately with a damp cloth and mild wool detergent, use an underlay pad to prevent slipping and wear, and consult a professional rug restorer for periodic cleaning.
