characteristic
Turkmen carpets are unique because they are traditionally hand-knotted from genuine Saraja sheep hair.
Since ancient times and up to now, Turkmen people have used only natural dyes and sheep's hair in weaving.
This is a one-off.
*The colors are a little more subtle than in the pictures.
**Due to photography and handwork, color variations may occur.

*Real antique oriental carpets are fundamentally different from mass-produced goods knotted in manufactories. Each piece is hand-knotted and unique! Irregularities in shape, color or material, or repaired and worn areas are no reason for complaint. These properties make every single carpet a collector's item and underline the authenticity of the goods.
