turkaman mori

Turkaman Mori rugs belong to the wider tradition of Turkoman weaving associated with communities across Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan and northeastern Iran. repeating octagonal guls move through geometric all-over fields, often grounded by red, red-brown and softly aged neutral color.

the antique wool rugs in this collection date from the late nineteenth through the early twentieth century. major and minor guls create a measured visual rhythm, while white, cream and darker accents bring definition to compositions softened by time and use.
