The ground set in a deep fiery rust and the contrasting guls in ivory and peach.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll purely Turkoman rugs, made by nomads or semi-nomads, are familiarly described as Bokhara rugs. Though the rugs are named after Bokhara, they are not produced there; the town is merely a centre for collection and export. The name, therefore gives no clue to the tribal areas from which they derive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs seen in this piece, the basic motif in the design of any Turkoman rug is the octagon or ‘gul’. Historically woven mostly by women, these Turkomen rugs combine a lustrous deep pile with an affordable price.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Archive","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":52562599608600,"sku":"ACR14","price":425.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/5800\/5784\/files\/main-image200.jpg?v=1787572390","url":"https:\/\/doeandhope.shop\/products\/a-contemporary-pakistan-bokhara-carpet-247cm-x-158cm-acr14","provider":"doeandhope.shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
