Collector's Notes
This antique Turkmen Yomud Kilim (Palas) was woven in the late 19th Century. Here the weaver’s fine needlework of light blue-green lattice frames both the larger indigo hooked 'kochak' motifs and interconnecting madder red diamonds with varying centers. Large striped flatwoven ends show spaced amulets on a rich eggplant purple brown attributed to the Yomut/Yomud. Great kilim rug for defining larger spaces.
