Antique Turkman - Tekke Small Scatter Size Wool Coral Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional piece is a fine representation of the tekke weaving tradition, known for its rigorous geometric structure and masterful use of deep, saturated wool. As a collectible example of antique rugs, it captures the authentic aesthetic of early 20th-century nomadic artistry. The palette is dominated by a rich, deeply dyed coral field, a hue that shifts subtly between madder red and vivid magenta. This striking color saturation places it among desirable coral color rugs, providing a warm, grounding presence. Its practical small scatter size makes it an ideal accent piece for a hallway or a layered vignette in a sophisticated interior. The field design is composed of six large, octagonal guls—the primary tribal emblem—which are meticulously arranged across the entire surface.
