Turkaman Rug | 2'8" x 4' | c. 1970s
Details
A field of deep terra cotta red hosts a rhythmic procession of stepped guls, rendered in velvety black, ivory, and warm chestnut wool. The symmetry and scale of each repeating motif evoke the precision of tribal tradition, yet the saturated warmth and sharp contrast feel modern in their boldness. A rich wool pile gives this rug its luxurious hand and durable body, ideal for accenting a minimalist space with heritage depth.
