tekke turkmen mafrash with octagonal guls. 31” x 10.5” (79 cm x 27 cm). 19th c. Edges are not complete and are overcast with red yarn (beginning to separate in a couple short intervals). Soft, velvety pile is good—virtually original length. Colors are all good, stable, and the palette is what i think of as the Akhal Tekke color aesthetic. Fine, even knotting, obviously done by an accomplished weaver.
