This charming vintage Turkmen Tobreh is a superb example of traditional weaving by the Iranian Turkmen tribes of Northeast Iran. Finely woven with high-quality wool, the piece is defined by its mature, deep red colour—a hallmark of Turkmen dyeing artistry—and features classic Turkmen gul motifs, emblematic of tribal identity and aesthetics.

Tobrehs were traditionally used by nomads for storing and transporting household items, and as such, they were both functional and symbolic. This particular example stands out for its crisp execution and balanced design, with symmetrical guls and a harmonious layout that reflects the weaver’s skill and eye for proportion.

Whether displayed on a wall, draped over a piece of furniture, or simply enjoyed as part of a textile collection, this piece offers a tangible connection to Turkmen cultural heritage. Its refined construction and well-preserved condition make it a true collectible for anyone interested in tribal rugs, ethnographic textiles, or handcrafted décor.
