Vintage Turkmen Kilim
Bright sienna red, ivory, black, soft green and warm yellow
Woven from local wool by nomadic tribes in Central Asia or Afghanistan, Turkmen kilims are
known for a fine yet highly durable flatweave. This unique technique results in a reversible textile with no pile, where the same characteristic motifs are visible on both sides. The weaving
method naturally lends itself to a banded pattern, and the balanced arrangement of these geometric designs gives the entire piece a sense of harmony.
