Code 8580 Persian Turkoman Tekke 190x135cm Hand knotted

Turkoman rugs from the Mashhad region in eastern Iran showcase a rich tapestry of heritage, craftsmanship, and vibrant symbolism. These hand-knotted rugs are characterized by their geometric Tekke designs, which bring a sense of rhythm and balance to the intricate patterns. Often, the designs feature either small, repeated geometric diamond shapes or larger motifs known as the “elephant foot,” a popular Turkoman symbol that adds an impactful, graphic element to the rug.

Made with a focus on durability, these rugs have a tight, robust weave that ensures lasting strength, ideal for high-traffic areas. The use of natural vegetable and plant-based dyes contributes to their allure, as it brings a depth and authenticity to the colors, particularly the dominant deep red. This red is not only visually striking but also symbolizes longevity and prosperity, evoking a timeless quality that makes these rugs suitable for both modern and traditional interiors. Their rich color palette and meaningful motifs connect the past and present, allowing them to enhance and complement various décor styles.
