The blue five-clawed dragon in the medallion is depicted in front view and in a circular movement, as usual chasing the flaming pearl hovering before him. In the spandrels, four serpentine blue dragons are seen in side view against a ground similarly brocaded in metal. The wide ochre border contains a frieze-like design of short stems bearing blossoms and leaves. \u2013 Comparatively coarse in weave, this rug with a silk pile on a cotton foundation is an early example of the group of so-called palace carpets. It lacks the all but obligatory Chinese inscription at the upper end denoting the place for which it was destined in the imperial palace. Lorentz has dated a very similar example as far back as the 18th century. A further palace rug with an identical border, albeit a slightly different lattice design, has been published by Bausback. \u2013 Very good condition.","index":"A98\/107","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"LORENTZ, HANS ACHIM, Chinesische Teppiche. 17.-20.

Most of the surviving examples were woven by the Tekke tribe. On the day of the wedding, a khalyk would be attached to the opening of the litter in which the bride, mounted on a camel, was led to the bridegroom\u2019s family. Guarded as a textile family treasure and only reused at weddings, khalyks have often survived in good condition. Seeing that they were precious and highly prestigious traditional objects, the excellent quality of nearly all the circa 100 khalyks currently known is not surprising. Their most distinctive feature is their U-shape, with an upper horizontal panel, two vertical arms which often differ in design from the panel, and a central triangular flap attached between the arms. There are considerable differences in terms of ornamentation, dimensions and palette. Red is the predominant ground colour, but a number of white-ground Tekke khalyks also exist. This example is very finely woven from velvety pile wool. The lower triangular flap shows a detached inverted triangle which is a rare feature. The long fringes are preserved intact and complete. \u2013 Very good condition.","index":"A98\/114","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"PINNER, ROBERT, The Rickmers Collection. Turkoman Rugs.

Three huge hexagons with wide blue outlines lie on the central axis of the field. Their white-ground interiors create an effect of frames superimposed on the white field. Each hexagon encloses a nested baklava diamond, and smaller analogous motifs fill the lateral areas. Two wide elems woven in a rare design complete the kilim. \u2013 Petsopoulos published the kilim as early as 1980. T\u00fcrck has published a fragment of the same group and underlines the outstanding quality of the colours in his detailed discussion. The bold, brilliant and harmoniously coordinated colours of this completely preserved kilim are equally impressive and can be considered a certain indication of age. - Slight signs of age and wear, damaged sides and ends.","index":"A98\/189","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"T\u00dcRCK, ULRICH, Anatolische Kelim im Schlo\u00df Lembeck.

The fact that every other compartment is regularly outlined in white and thus accentuated has resulted in diagonal, vertical and horizontal relationships in the tile-like design.

In some compartments the ground is woven in ruby silk that is now heavily corroded. The ground of the main border also consists of corroded ruby silk. Consequently, the white butterfly forms and the red-and-blue rectangles of the border design stand out in relief. Hooked diamonds with centres likewise woven in silk are lined up in the elem. \u2013 This small-format jollar is one of the rarest surviving Salor weavings. It compares best to the fragment published in Rageth\u2019s book, which was assigned a date in the 17th\/18th century by radiocarbon analysis, and the jollar from the Jenkins Collection (see Mackie\/Thompson). The example published by Thompson in \"Carpet Magic\" seems considerably later in date. \u2013 Signs of age and wear, slightly reduced all around, the original width is only partly preserved on the right.","index":"A98\/217","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"RAGETH, J\u00dcRG, Turkmenische Teppiche.
