Fine Turkmen Tekke Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 286 x 196 cm
Fine Turkmen Tekke Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 286 x 196 cm
One-of-a-kind hand-knotted piece
No two are alike - each rug carries its own pattern, colour balance and handmade character
Rows of Tekke gül motifs establish a commanding rhythm across the deep red field of this Fine Turkmen Tekke rug. Each emblem sits within a precise geometric arrangement, while layered borders in dark navy, black and ivory frame the composition with intricate detail. Burgundy tonal variation enriches the symmetry, giving the expansive pattern depth and a strong visual presence.
Hand-knotted in Afghanistan from pure wool pile, the rug reflects the ordered geometry and recurring gül tradition associated with Turkmen Tekke design. Its generous scale allows the detailed motif work to unfold with clarity, revealing the precision, texture and individual character of the handwork.

Care & Maintenance
- Hand-knotted wool rugs are made to last with the right care. Vacuum gently using a suction-only setting, rotate the rug occasionally for even wear, and blot any marks promptly with a clean cloth rather than rubbing.
- For deeper cleaning, professional rug cleaning is recommended to help protect the wool fibres, natural dyes and hand-knotted structure of the rug.
Note
- Each rug is professionally photographed to represent its colours as accurately as possible, while natural light, pile direction and digital display settings may create subtle variations in tone.
- Where additional colour is required, the wool in our hand-knotted rugs is coloured exclusively with vegetable dyes, complementing the fibre’s natural tonal variation and the individual character of the weave.
- Over time, vegetable-dyed handmade rugs may gently soften in tone, adding to the natural ageing and textile character that makes each piece unique.
