This fine Turkmen carpet is an exceptional example of tribal weaving, featuring the classic Tekke Gul—also known as the Gushly Gul—a motif deeply rooted in Turkmen culture and tradition. Woven by a master weaver, the design is notably crisp, symmetrical, and well-defined, reflecting a high level of skill and precision rarely seen in more commercial pieces.

The Tekke Gul is the signature design of the Tekke tribe, one of the most well-known Turkmen groups, and symbolises strength, protection, and identity. This carpet’s layout is meticulously executed, with a field full of repeated guls that create a rhythmic and visually satisfying pattern. The secondary motifs and borders are equally sharp, adding to the balance and elegance of the piece.

The carpet is in excellent condition, with the structure, pile, and colour vibrancy preserved beautifully—testament to both the quality of the wool and natural dyes used, as well as careful upkeep over the years.

Ideal for collectors of tribal rugs or anyone looking to bring bold geometry, authenticity, and historical richness into their interior, this Turkmen carpet is a fine and lasting example of its kind.
