FAQs

Tekke Turkmen rugs are traditionally crafted by nomadic tribes of Central Asia, specifically recognisable by their fine wool pile and symmetrical gushguli gul motifs.

These pieces are typically made from handspun sheep wool for the pile and foundation, dyed with natural madder reds, and handknotted using the asymmetric or symmetric knot.

Authenticity is identified through irregularities in handspinning and weaving, natural colour variation in the abrash, organic dyestuffs, and authentic wear patterns on the wool pile and fringes.

An antique oriental rug adds grounding warmth and texture to contemporary spaces, working well layered over neutral floorboards or paired with minimalist mid-century or industrial furniture.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional specialised cleaning when necessary, and the use of a breathable rug underlay to prevent friction and slippage.
