A striking antique Turkmen Yomud rug, attributed to the early 20th century, with a deep brick-red ground densely patterned with repeating dark indigo geometric motifs and finely detailed borders in red, blue and ivory. The repeated tribal motifs give this beautifully timeworn textile a strong graphic presence that works wonderfully with antique and mid-century furniture alike.

At 200 × 118 cm, its long, relatively narrow proportions make it a characterful choice for a hallway, beside a bed, or in a seating area.

This is a markedly worn antique rug with numerous substantial pale areas where the pile has been lost, exposing the underlying foundation. These areas are visible throughout the central field, especially toward both ends. The rug is offered as a decorative antique in its present condition rather than as a pristine or fully restored carpet.
