Like the previous example, the one offered here has stood the test of time in an old American private collection. The sizes of the two carpets are almost the same: appreciably smaller than other Eagle Group main carpets, they are extremely finely woven, with silk wefts, and have colours of an indescribably rich glow. The very narrow single-stripe border is a characteristic feature. Since the design of stepped chevrons is directional, it has been presumed that the striped carpets used to serve as wall hangings. \r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>We are indebted to Azadi and Rautenstegel for their monograph on these rarest of all Turkmen rugs. Probably made by G\u00f6klen tribes in the South West Turkestan \/ North East Persian border area, Eagle carpets are distinctly different from Yomut weavings to which they were initially ascribed. Experienced specialists had a sense of this in the past, as surrogate designations such as \u201cOgurjali\u201c or \u201cFine Brown Yomut\u201d indicate. \r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>The same composition of horizontal stripes combined with niche motifs and border designs are seen in two main carpets published by Sch\u00fcrmann and Bausback, which are significantly later in date, as well as a very old striped chuval illustrated by Rautenstengel. The design also occurs in Yomut striped kilims whose ornamentation is probably inspired by main carpets. Like the example woven around the same time and sold in 2000, the Eagle I carpet offered here may be one of the oldest surviving Turkmen weavings. In the absence of a radiocarbon analysis we can only speculate about its age, however based on current research regarding the ages of Turkmen carpets a 17th century date would now not seem surprising. The very precise drawing, extremely meticulous weave, precious materials and singular appeal make this carpet a masterpiece of nomad art. \u2013 Two stitched vertical tears at the top left of the field, otherwise in very good condition, with remnants of the kilim ends and the original two-tone flat-woven selvedges.\r\n<\/p>","index":"A85\/176","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"SCH\u00dcRMANN, ULRICH, Zentral-Asiatische Teppiche.

The style of the vines and the colours employed suggest that it was made in Kermina, a small town situated east of Bokhara along one of the transit routes traversing southern Uzbekistan. In the main border, eight circular poppy blossoms are linked by an elongated vine. The delicate vine of the outer border is decorated with blue flowers. The most spectacular feature is the large tree-like shape bearing five sweeping, sickle-like branches with curled ends which fills the field. The branches show a motley design reminiscent of a harlequin\u2019s costume. Two thin green vines decorated with blue blossoms grow from the stem of a boteh at the lower end of the field, surrounding the central motif. Interpretation of the latter presents a mystery; the question of whether it is a plant design or a mythological bird in disguise, as proposed by Herrmann in his description of a comparative example, must remain unanswered for the time being. \u2013 Good condition, backed with canvas.","index":"A86\/5","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"HERRMANN, EBERHART, Asiatische Teppich- und Textilkunst 4.

Pervading all classes and ethnic groups, they are an art form produced by the entire population. Brides would bring to their marriages a number of embroideries made by themselves and their families as textile dowries. The quality of the textiles was the criterion by which their skill and the status of their families would be judged. Large covers of prestigious character served as bedspreads as well as tablecloths or wall hangings on festive occasions. After the ceremony, wedding cloths were frequently stored in wooden chests, accounting for their good condition. \u2013 Shakhrisyabz embroideries show the widest borders of all suzanis and use particularly elaborate border designs, two criteria that constitute their distinguishing features. This gorgeous example is striking because it lacks the ubiquitous circular blossoms in the design. Starting from the lower left-hand corner, a lush elongated vine bearing fan-shaped blossoms in various sizes and colours undulates through the main border. The twigs branching from it are decorated with small flowers, including tulips, carnations and blue irises. Drawn with a confident sense of proportion, the design of the field consists of a network of petrol diagonal branches that form compressed diamonds, their points of intersection marked by large red fan-shaped carnations. The curved, slightly concave branches bear elongated leaves with serrated outlines. Several branches are decorated with semi-circular blossoms. This composition is only encountered in a very few suzanis (see examples below). The suzani derives its particular appeal from its high proportion of light and brilliant colours (golden yellow, orange, ochre and light blue). \u2013 Good condition. The sides are still backed with the original silk ikat fabric while the canvas backing on the reverse is a later addition.","index":"A86\/6","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"BLACK, DAVID & LOVELESS, CLIVE, Embroidered Flowers From Thrace to Tartary.

The pistachio silk ground brings out the full brilliance of the diverse colours. The finely stitched hems and outlines of the motifs, the design sections embroidered in red wool and the characteristic expressive style leave us in no doubt that this suzani is a Lakai piece. It was probably made in the surroundings of Samarkand since the composition follows the same concept in its division of space. In the small field, the central blossom is surrounded by a vine of prickly appearance decorated with hook-like leaves and small anemones. The corners of field contain two large circular blossoms enclosing star motifs and two smaller circular blossoms resembling cogged wheels. Two large birds in flight are depicted at the ends of the field. However, it is the main border that particularly catches the eye. Huge blossoms, predominantly in reds and pinks, have been inserted at a 90 degree angle between pairs of sturdy, slightly curved branches decorated with colourful botehs, hooked leaves and anemones. Shaped like umbrellas, their semi-circular upper edges are decorated with long curved points ending in small yellow triangles. This motif appears exotic and is reminiscent of a fool\u2019s cap. Two further birds have been incorporated into the border. In contrast to the powerful effect achieved by the main border, the delicate vines of the secondary borders are of the utmost elegance. \u2013 Good condition, backed with canvas.","index":"A86\/16","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"HERRMANN, EBERHART, Asiatische Teppich- und Textilkunst 2.

The finely embroidered seams outlining many of the designs, the specific colour combinations seen in the flowers, the presence of small botehs divided in two by colour change and the use of wool yarn for the red sections prove that it is a Lakai piece. The highly elegant drawing of the design is striking; it was conceived by a professional designer. Taube aptly describes it as follows: \"The broad border has the effect of an oversized frame for a small picture\". This impression is partly due to the difference in size of the small flowering plants arranged into offset rows in the field and the eight large star-shaped blossoms seen in the main border. The petrol twigs and blue vines are barely distinguishable from the dark ground of the border. In consequence, the brilliant circular and fan-shaped blossoms and the densely filled, colourful peonies attached to the diagonal twigs stand out all the more. \u2013 The fine silk ground has worn away in many places. However, this is barely noticeable due to the fact that the cotton foundation beneath it is dyed blue as well. Otherwise well preserved.

Hirsch narrows down the provenance to the Canakkale-Balikesir region, proposing that the kilim was woven by local Y\u00fcnc\u00fc nomads. Judging by the palette of the dividing bands which combine red and blue, red and green and red and yellow, his assumption seems reasonable. Overall colour schemes this bright and brilliant only occur in early examples. The format, too, is characteristic of Y\u00fcnc\u00fc kilims. Composed of horizontal bands of varying width, the design of this borderless kilim continues into infinity beyond the sides of the field. The most striking design feature is the large motifs shaped like combs at one end and angled at the other end that face alternating directions in the four widest bands. Both Herrmann and Hirsch interpret them as zoomorphic figures; they probably depict birds in flight. Two further examples of this rare group are known. \u2013 Slight signs of wear, good overall condition.","index":"A86\/20","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"CASSIN, JACK, Image, Idol, Symbol.

The ascending field design consists of huge petrol vines and elongated forked leaves that twine around or in between large circular blossoms. It is drawn in a flamboyant style and full of lively movement. The power and momentum of the composition will captivate any viewer. The border achieves an equally monumental effect; circular blossoms alternating with diagonal crosses, each composed of five smaller flowers, are embedded in a system of rotating vines, serrated leaves and small flowers in diverse shapes and colours. The central border section at the upper end of the field is framed by secondary borders like a panel and thus separated, a fact that is only revealed on closer inspection \u2013 an extremely rare phenomenon. The blossoms are embroidered in orange, ochre and pink as well as light blues and greens, creating a very special colour expression. The characteristic red designs dominating most suzanis do not occur in this item. \u2013 Various holes in the foundation have been backed with fabric. Signs of age and wear, backed with canvas.","index":"A86\/23","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"GRUBE, ERNST J., Keshte. The Marshall and Marylyn R. Wolf Collection.
