Ersari Rugs: The Dodds Turkmen Ersari Carpet

The Dodds Turkmen Ersari Carpet

I spotted this Turkmen Ersari Carpet on www.Cloudband.com offered by one of the World's great dealers, Dennis Dodds.

Trusted Resource List Rug & Carpet Dealers In The U.S. Maqam.

Dodds Full Description:

Four rows of well-drawn Tauk-Nuska guls with crests; secondary tchemche ornaments and 8-pointed stars alternate in green and indigo.

JBOC's Notes:A few points stand out as I review this carpet. The Tauk-Nuska guls and the secondary Tchemche ornaments are well done and traditional. The tertiary field ornaments are 8 pointed stars which gives this rug a distinctively Ersari look.
