This antique rug originates from around 1900 in the Turkmen style, classified as a Tekke 'dip khali' half size carpet measuring 197 cm high by 116 cm wide and 1 cm deep. Hand-knotted from wool, the pile displays a deep red ground accented by shades of cream, dark blue and brown, complemented by a hand-knotted wool fringe at the ends. The central field contains three rows of ten large round Tekke gul motifs arranged in a symmetrical layout, surrounded by a multi-band geometric border with intricate repeating patterns. Slight wear is visible across the pile, testifying to its age. Suitable for placement in a study, library or living room, this floor covering brings traditional warmth and rich heritage to a domestic interior. It lies flat on the floor to anchor furniture arrangements or functions as a decorative textile piece. The hand-washed finish ensures it arrives ready for placement in the home, bringing authentic period character and classic textile artistry to the interior scheme.

FAQs

A Tekke Turkmen rug is a traditional hand-knotted textile produced by the Tekke tribe of Central Asia, historically characteristically styled with repeating octagonal medallion motifs known as guls on a deep red or madder field.

These carpets are hand-knotted using locally sourced wool yarn for both the pile and foundation, finished with natural vegetable dyes and framed by intricate multi-band geometric borders.

Authentic pieces from around 1900 display fine knot density, soft hand-spun wool, slight colour variations known as abrash, and distinct tribal gul proportions rather than rigid factory symmetry.

Anchor the rug in a minimalist or contemporary room to create contrast, or layer it over neutral natural-fibre floor coverings alongside dark wood or polished metal accents.

Vacuum gently without a rotating brush head, clean spills immediately with a damp cotton cloth, use a rug pad underneath to prevent fiber strain, and consult a professional restorer for deep cleaning.
