About This Turkaman
Turkmen rugs are woven by Turkic tribal groups in Golestan Province, northeastern Iran, and across Central Asia. Knotted predominantly with the symmetrical (Turkish) knot, they are instantly recognisable by their repeating "gul" motifs, octagonal medallions arranged in rhythmic rows across a deep wine-red or burgundy field.
Each Turkmen sub-tribe has its own distinctive gul shape, making tribal attribution possible for experienced eyes. The dense, fine knotting and hand-spun wool produce a sturdy, compact fabric that wears exceptionally well over decades.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 181 × 135 cm (2.44 m²) this is a small rug. It works beside a bed, in a reading corner, in front of a fireplace or as a mat by a door. It does not furnish a room; it makes a point in one.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 501,000 to 640,000 knots per square metre; across 2.44 m² that is roughly 1.2 to 1.6 million individual knots, every one of them tied by hand.
How do I care for this rug?
Hand-spun wool still carries its own lanolin, which keeps liquid sitting on the surface for a moment: blot quickly, with clear water and a light cloth, working inwards and without rubbing. Otherwise regular vacuuming along the pile is enough. Turn the rug once or twice a year so light and footfall reach it evenly.
