Geometric Wine Red Tekke Bokhara with Border & Diamonds, 1930s

About This Piece

Vintage Design

The abstract, geometric composition creates the simple elegance of this Tekke Bokhara. The pattern flatters the design of the room and does not take the attention away from its furniture, decoration and architectural elements. It blends in fantastically with any surroundings and subtly complements the interior design of a room. . The embellished edging (border) forms a excellent contrast to the center and creates a transition at the edge of the rug. The repeating elements in the center field of this Tekke Bokhara rug have no specific center (so-called repeating pattern). The repeating pattern has a calming but not boring effect. Rugs with repeating patterns are also called patterned. In the pattern of this Tekke Bokhara, the diamonds stand out in particular. Diamonds are a rhombus standing on a point, the four equal sides of which may be jagged, stitched or hooked. The diamond is one of the oldest basic forms in oriental rugs. It has a symbolic meaning in the Islamic world: it symbolizes the immortality of the soul. It is therefore very often found as a filler motif. The color of this [region of origin/design] ist wine red. This Tekke Bokhara has a story. It was hand knotted about 1930. We have cleaned it thoroughly and restored it lovingly. Therefore it is in very good condition despite its age. The pile of this Tekke Bokhara has been hand-knotted from high-quality virgin wool. Virgin wool is obtained through the gentle shearing of sheep. Virgin wool is a sustainable, natural raw material with a number of impressive properties; due to the wool's natural fat content, the surface repels water droplets and is thus naturally impervious to dirt. Wool also offers excellent thermal insulation, has a regulating effect on living climate and muffles sound. The backing (weft and warp threads) of this Tekke Bokhara is made of virgin wool.
