534. a resplendent antique Tekke Turkoman carpet
534. Provenance: Tekke tribe, Turkoman weaving group, Central Asia
Size: 300 x 220 cm
Age: Circa 1890
Condition: Good for age, with just very minor areas of slight wear.
Notes: Restrained and full of dignity, this antique tribal Tekke is superb. Very finely woven, with a flexible, soft handle, it demands respect. The classic, joined Tekke guls are of a good size and spacing and the dyes are natural. A must-have for Turkoman tribal collectors. These are harder and harder to find, and this is very well-priced for what it is.
