Gul Motif: The field is filled with rows of large, repeating octagonal medallions known as guls. These guls are the defining element of Turkmen rugs and traditionally symbolize the specific tribe that wove the rug. The Ersari tribe, for example, is known for large-scale motifs and bold designs.
Tribal Combination: The reference to both Tekke and Ersari designs suggests a composition that may blend features. Tekke main rugs feature repeated small guls in deep red, while the Ersari are known for their large guls and overall bolder patterns.
Border: The central field is enclosed by multiple, intricate border bands. These bands contain smaller, complex geometric designs that complement the boldness of the central guls.
