Description

Turkoman rugs were first woven only in Afghanistan, which is where they originated from. They later made their way into Turkey and Persia over the years by Afghan immigrants who brought along with them their hand-made rugs and sold them in the Turkish and Persian markets.

Their distinctive style and coloration soon became very popular in Turkey and before long, rugs in the same style were being produced in Turkey too. However, there was a slight variation in the rugs that were woven in Turkey.

Turkoman rugs are very easy to distinguish because most of them will almost always feature three distinguishing characteristics. The first distinguishing feature is the color of the background, which is typically a distinctive red to reddish – brown color. The second is their predominantly geometric pattern. The third feature that you will see in all Turkoman rugs is the unique octagonal gul motif in a number of different variations.
