Semi-Antique and Antique Carpets |
| |
|
| |
The most valuable carpets and kilims in the Turkmen yurt were always dowry pieces. For Turkmen women, weaving these pieces for their daughter’s or sister’s dowry or for themselves was both a labour of love and a matter of prestige. Particular care and diligence were taken in both the sorting and the carding of the finest wool, invariably from the spring clip. These pieces, many of them works of art, have a variety of colours and detail in the design that are difficult to find in market-produced pieces.
The antique and semi-antique carpets we offer were hand knotted from the 1920s up to the 1960s over extended areas of Afghanistan and Turkmenistan but also in Iran and near the ancient Silk Road city of Bukahra (in what is today Uzbekistan) by various clans of Ersari, Yamood, Saruq, Akhal, Tekke and Bashire Turkmen. They are made with the finest Karaqul hand spun wool using natural dyes with the traditional Turkish double wefted asymmetrical knot or with the sennah (Persian) symmetrical knot. |
