Tekké Chouval Rug, Turkestan, 104 Cm X 167 Cm, Wool On Wool, Late 19th Century, Early 20th Cent
Artist: Tribus Tekké
Tekké chouval carpet from West Turkestan.
A late 19th century piece measuring 104 cm wide by 158 cm long.
These carpets can be recognized by their very distinctive style, whose designs and colors have remained unchanged for centuries.
The term "chouval" or "joval" is used to describe a specific form of carpet with a wide design, normally featuring a plain or embroidered kilim on the back.
This allows it to be used as a cushion, when stuffed.
It is found suspended, by both ends in tents and some yurts, which gives it a bouncy shape.
Our model is the work of the Tekkés, a tribe living in Western Turkestan.
The field naturally a beautiful orange-red almost copper-red, is covered with orange octagons called gul.
Each Afghan or Turkmen tribe has its own gul.
The prerogative of these carpets are the "kotchaks", ram's horns found almost throughout these magnificent tribal pieces.
These carpets feature the guls, large octagons called "gul".
Originally the gul is a kind of tribal emblem called a "tamga" in the same way as our coats of arms.
They frame a design of geminated horns, called "kotchak" or "Bouinouze"
The tamga was passed on from one tribe to another at weddings, but also during wars, when, in the event of defeat, the defeated tribe ceded its gul to the victorious tribe.
The wool used is always very soft and fine, taken from under the belly of the sheep.
These rugs are highly prized by collectors of pieces originating in Central Asia.
Dimensions: Width : 104 cm ( 41" ) x Length : 158 cm ( 62" )
This rug has been professionally and ecologically cleaned.
