705. a laudable Afghan 'Tekke' carpet

705. Provenance: Northern Afghanistan

Age: Circa 1980

Size: 300 x 203 cm

Condition: Excellent.

Notes: Ever and justly popular Tekke design, with small interlinked Tekke guls in main field. This one is surrounded by a particularly fine and elaborate border. A sturdy carpet, which is quite heavy, and unlike many Afghans will sit perfectly flat. Suitable for an area of heavy traffic, or perhaps under a dining table.
