This is an Ersari rug woven in Afghanistan. Turkmen tribes such as the Ersari have traditional patterns that are repeated across the field. Each gul acts as an emblem for its tribe. Often, the weavers sing songs that they have inherited from their distant past. These songs contain numbers, colours and figures of speech that dictate the pattern to the weavers, hence the amazing harmony and order. Wool on a wool base.
