Torkaman (also Turkoman) rugs are produced by the various Turkmen tribes of Central Asia — Tekke, Yomut, Ersari, Saryk, Salor, and others — across a broad territory spanning Turkmenistan, northern Afghanistan, and northeastern Iran. Each tribe has its own distinctive gul (emblem) and compositional vocabulary, making Torkaman rugs a rich field for collectors and scholars.
They are woven on a wool foundation with a medium-to-long pile and predominantly natural dyes, with the deep madder red that characterizes so much Turkmen work derived from the madder plant. Their strict geometric order, superb wool, and tribal authenticity make them among the most compelling of all Oriental rugs.
