FAQs

Tekke rugs are traditional hand-knotted textiles crafted by the Tekke tribe of Turkmenistan, typically characterised by symmetrical guls and fine wool construction.

These carpets are traditionally woven using hand-spun wool for the pile, warp, and weft, often dyed with natural madder and other plant or insect-based colorants.

Authentic pieces feature dense hand-knotting, natural abrash variations in colour, hand-spun wool fibres, and traditional tribal guls specific to the weaving group.

An antique tribal rug functions well as a grounding element in contemporary, minimalist, or eclectic rooms, adding texture, warmth, and historical depth to the floor.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional cleaning when necessary, and keeping the textile away from direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent fading.
