About this item
This large good quality Tekke Bokhara Carpet has a very intricate design with an overall brick / pink ground colour. It also has navy blue, cream and red in the design, which is well balanced with an even colour.
There are rows of repeating guls, believed to represent an elephants foot, to the centre and they are surrounded by a very intricate border.
The soft wool pile is consistent throughout apart from a small low central area which is not easily noticeable (please see photo).
There are some small losses to to the edges and also to the fringes however this is a very attractive large vintage carpet in original condition.
*Bokhara carpets were originally hand woven by carpet makers from Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. Their designs proved to be very popular and were also used by carpet weavers from Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan and China.
