This nomadic Turkmen rug, measuring 170 × 280 cm including fringes, is handwoven from pure wool in the tradition of the Tekke tribe of Turkmenistan. It features a dense weave (approximately 360,000 knots per square meter) and a matte, non-glossy surface. The dominant color is a muted brick red, softened with gradients of brown, beige, and black, giving the rug a patinated, time-worn appearance. The geometric pattern is based on repeating 'gul' motifs and a wide, ornamental border, arranged in rhythmic vertical panels. The details are rendered in contrasting shades, while the hand-finished edges and short-end fringes attest to the authenticity of the craftsmanship. The wool texture is soft and slightly textured, and the rug lies flat and stable on the floor. The overall condition is very good, with only minor traces of use and natural patina typical for a vintage piece. The design tells the story of the Central Asian steppes—each 'gul' motif carries the memory of ancient nomadic journeys, while the warm red palette evokes the earth and fire of the region
