On the Design:

The Ersari are a sub-tribe of the Turkmen people, often known for their more distinct tribal rug designs.

In this rug, beige-brown and light blue tones underscore geometric patterns in a play of medallion and all over style - particularly subtle execution of color and pattern, almost evoking neutrals in kind.

Admirers of the craft may further note these four rows of repeating medallions in the field have a clear influence from Bokhara rugs of the same and previous periods.

Condition:

The rug thrives in good condition for its age and lineage. less
