This rug was woven by Yomut weavers in northeastern Iran, where the tribe has maintained its craft across centuries of nomadic and semi-nomadic life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets Yomut rugs apart from other Turkmen weaving is their colour palette. Where most Turkmen tribes work almost exclusively in deep reds, the Yomut have always used a wider range, richer purples, warm browns, ivory and indigo blues that give their rugs a depth and complexity that is immediately distinctive. The guls are typically diamond or hexagonal in form, arranged in diagonal rows across the field, with intricate borders that frame the design without competing with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis rug is hand-knotted from hand-spun wool on a wool foundation. The wool comes from the tribe's own flocks, naturally strong and lanolin-rich, with a sheen that only deepens with age. Traditionally, a Yomut woman's weaving skill was a mark of her family's standing, a bride would weave rugs for her dowry, and the quality of her work reflected the reputation of her entire tribe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Najaf Rugs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43654776717568,"sku":"NR-1357","price":2500.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0665\/1805\/7216\/products\/Vintage-Turkmen-Yomut-Rug-Najaf-Rugs184-x-125-cm-61-x-41.jpg?v=1782430087","url":"https:\/\/www.najaf.com.au\/products\/vintage-turkmen-yomut-rug-184-x-125-cm-61-x-41","provider":"Najaf Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
