Wanddekoration - Turkmenistan

Antique Tekke Mafrash (or Kap), a traditional Turkmen nomadic wall hanging. These hand-knotted textiles were originally used in tents (yurts) or as decoration on the sides of camels during migrations.
Key Features:
Origin: Turkmenistan, Tekke tribe, typically from the mid- to late 19th century.
Pattern: The central field features repeating octagonal motifs, often called the "aina gul" (mirror gul) pattern.
Material and Color: Traditionally made of wool, with deep red, orange, dark blue, and occasionally magenta silk trim. The long fringes at the bottom are characteristic of the nomadic aesthetic.
The rug is in very good condition for its age, and is equipped with rings to hang it on the wall. The fringes are not quite perfect, but they are not really distracting.
