Antique Turkmen Rug 185x110cm

The rust-coloured field is adorned with three rows of the iconic elephant foot (Gul) motifs, a symbol traditionally associated with power and tribal identity. The bold geometric design is arranged in perfect symmetry, creating a balanced and rhythmic layout that is both decorative and meaningful.

Adding further depth and definition are the multiple geometric borders, which frame the central field and introduce layers of intricate tribal symbolism. The contrast between the rich rust background and the dark secondary tones gives the rug a striking two-tone effect, typical of older Turkmen rugs prized by collectors and decorators alike.

This piece remains in good antique condition, with areas of low pile that are consistent with age and use, and which contribute to its authentic, lived-in charm. Perfect for traditional settings, eclectic interiors, or as a collector’s accent, this rug is both versatile and deeply rooted in heritage.
