FAQs

Tekke rugs are hand-knotted oriental carpets produced by the Tekke tribe of Turkmen nomads in Central Asia, historically characterised by repeating octagonal motifs known as guls.

These traditional pieces are typically constructed using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation, often dyed using natural madder roots to achieve rich red tones.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the knot density, natural colour variations, wool quality, wear patterns, and the specific structure of the selvages and fringes.

An antique rug can be layered over larger natural fibre flooring or used as a focal point in minimalist spaces to introduce texture, warmth, and historical contrast.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional cleaning when necessary, and avoiding direct, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight.
