Rare Turkmen Tekke Kapunuk – door or tent entrance hanging with long, wrapped fringes. The U-shaped woven textile piece is executed in a firm and fine weave in the typical Turkmen style. The two side parts taper into arrow shapes. At the top, there are fixed hanging loops on both sides. On the two side flaps, there are 10 and 12 bundled warp threads wrapped with black and red wool. Each has two black tassels and one red end tassel (not all fully intact), each also adorned with a turquoise/blue bead nearly 14 mm in diameter. In the passage area, there are 35 bundled warp threads wrapped with black and red wool, decorated with red and black tassels and beads. This Kapunuk is very elaborately woven and decorated.
