Antique Central Asian Turkoman Room Size Carpet

No. 31738
Central Asia, Early 20th Century
10 ft. x 12 ft. 8 in.
(3.02 x 3.83 m)

A wool pile with asymmetric knots on a wool foundation. The sandy straw field features stacked rows of unidirectional, jagged full palmettes alternating uniformly with tilted palmettes, all in shades of slate. Numerous borders are present, with dark brown delineating lines that stand out, often more than the actual patterns themselves. Narrow beige wool elems (extra end panels) with zig-zag sections frame the design. Instead of emblematic tribal guls, the pattern is dominated by palmettes.
