Antique Red Tekke Allover Geometric Hand Knotted Pile Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional example of tekke weaving showcases the precise geometric language for which the Central Asian tribes are renowned. The field is dominated by a repeated gul structure, forming a powerful allover rugs design that extends seamlessly across the entire plane. The palette is defined by a rich, deeply saturated red ground color, which provides a striking contrast to the secondary elements. The wool pile, hand-spun and dyed using traditional methods, exhibits the lustrous patina achieved only through a century of careful use. The impressive scale of this piece elevates it beyond a simple floor covering; it functions as a foundational element of interior design.
