Turkmen Eagle-gül II carpet from Adil Besim

Turkmen Carpet
Central Asia
19th Century
Adil Besim, Vienna

"As far as is known so far, the unidentified gül of this splendid main carpet appears on three early and radically differing Turkmen multi-gül carpets; six other Turkmens (three main carpets and three variously dimensioned smaller rugs) probably from the same, as yet unattributed and unnamed tribe; and one east Kurdish rug.
spacer
The gül is distinctive, and may have a family relationship to the 'Eagle-gül'. As in Eagle gül main carpets, those in our group of six carpets carry the dyrnak gül as secondary ornament. Like Eagle-gül II carpets, most of the group are woven in the asymmetric knot open right, but some are in the symmetric knot. The ground colour too is related to that of Eagle gül rugs and is found also in Göklen and some Yomut rugs. No pilewoven bags, trappings or other small items which belong to our unattributed carpets have yet been identified."
