Turkoman patterns often represent a repeated geometric design that serves as an emblem of the clan from which the rug originates, in this case, that of the Tekkeh tribes who reside in modern-day Turkmenistan.
To achieve the precision and symmetry found in such rugs, weavers memorise the patterns through songs that dictate the placement of knots and corresponding colours. These songs vary from one Tekkeh family to another, resulting in subtle differences between rugs.
The weaver of this beautiful rug has made fine knots on a wool base, using a limited palette of colours. Such a rug can last for generations, and its colours deepen and become richer with time and use.
