J. Thompson, 'Oriental Carpets: From the Tents, Cottages and Workshops of Asia', New York, 1983, p 100.

Muut tiedot

The Turkmen tradition dictates that Asmalyks, woven in pairs, were made by elder women for the dowry of the tribe's young brides. The camels are adorned with these artistic creations during the wedding procession, and they are then placed centrally in the large Turkmen tents.

The ivory colour makes this Asmalyk very special. The significance of this choice of colour means this piece is particularly special as white is the Turkmen wedding colour.
