Jamouth old antique - Rug - 365 cm - 220 cm

Origin These carpets originate from the Turkmenistan region and are among the best-known carpets in the Turkmen carpet tradition. The Jomuth are one of the most important ethnic groups among the Turkmen tribes, and their carpets are famous for their exceptional craftsmanship and their unique designs. Features of Jomuth Carpets: Knot technique: Jomuth carpets are woven with the traditional Turkish knot technique (also called Senneknoten). This technique yields a dense, stable structure and is a distinctive feature of many Turkmen carpets. Materials: Jomuth carpets are typically made from high-quality wool sourced from sheep in the region. The wool is often hand-spun and gives the carpets a soft yet robust texture. In some carpets, silk or cotton is used for finer details. Historical Significance: Jomuth carpets are an essential part of the Turkmen carpet tradition, deeply connected to the nomadic way of life and the culture of the Turkmen people. The carpets were originally woven by nomadic tribes for personal use, both for outfitting tents and for ritual purposes. The carpets serve not only as floor coverings but also as valuable heirlooms and artworks that reflect the history and heritage of the Turkmen people. Jomuth carpets are an outstanding example of the skill and tradition of Turkmen carpet weaving. Their geometric patterns, distinctive color palette, and high-quality workmanship make them coveted collectibles, especially old and antique pieces. These carpets offer not only aesthetic value but also a deep insight into the culture and history of the Turkmen peoples. With authenticity certificates
