HOT ! Bokhara – Turkaman Persian Rug | 1\'11\" × 3\'11\" | c. 1970s

A lush ruby-red field shimmers beneath rows of repeating “Tekke gul” medallions — a hallmark of the Turkaman weaving tradition from northeastern Persia. The finely knotted wool pile rests on a sturdy cotton foundation, lending both softness and resilience. Warm ivory guard borders frame the rhythmic geometry, while the lustrous pile catches light in a way that changes from deep wine to glowing garnet depending on angle. Compact in size but rich in presence, this piece offers both a functional accent and a small-scale collectible for connoisseurs.
