$2,500.00

Discover the bold artistry of nomadic traditions with this striking early 20th Century Turkmen Yomut Chuval Bagface. This captivating handwoven textile features the iconic traditional 3x3 Gul (medallion or flower) design, a revered hallmark of Turkmen weaving heritage and a symbol unique to the Yomut tribes.

The design is rendered in a rich and earthy palette of classic red, verdant green, warm brown, and serene blue, exemplifying the distinctive bold geometry and profound cultural symbolism for which Yomut textiles are celebrated. Originally serving as the decorative front panel of a storage bag (a chuval) used by nomadic groups for their household essentials, this piece now transcends its utilitarian origins.

Today, this culturally meaningful artifact serves beautifully as a versatile decorative textile. Its robust construction and compelling design make it ideal for use as a charming small floor covering, a distinctive tabletop accent, or truly unique wall art. It is a highly collectible piece that offers a perfect blend of authentic tribal history and striking aesthetic appeal for both modern and traditional interiors.
