Dense rows of small Turkmen güls cover a deep burgundy-red field, each octagonal medallion quartered in cream, gold and black and linked by rows of tiny stepped diamonds. The rich, dark ground gives this Bokhara a warm, classic depth.
A run of many narrow guard borders in cream, gold and indigo — diamonds, hooked motifs and a banded gül border — frames the field, closing at each end into kilim-flatweave panels of latch-hook lattice. Hand-knotted in Pakistan from fine, hand-spun highland wool, the pile is dense and closely clipped, giving crisp definition to every gül and border. Coloured with rich, natural-looking dyes and worked entirely by hand, the deep red glows with a gentle abrash, and every medallion is drawn a little differently — the honest mark of a genuine one-of-a-kind, hand-made piece.
