A wool pile with asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation. This is an especially striking, large k’ang-format piece featuring a dark blue field with two full-length vase-and-pomegranate trees. The rust-rose main border displays a simple meander adorned with reversing floral motifs. 'Kilim barmak' Turkmen tertiary stripes add serrated designs, making this piece a truly iconic example.
