Turkmen Bag Face

Cleveland Museum of Art

Reddish-brown rug with geometric pattern. The rug is square with a short fringe along the bottom edge. The main body of the rug has a repeating pattern of eight identical octagonal shapes, arranged in two rows of four. Each octagon has a dark red center with a lighter red, brown, and cream-colored design around it. The octagons are outlined in black and have a symmetrical design. The background of the rug is a deep reddish-brown color with a subtle sheen. The border of the rug is decorated with a repeating pattern of small flowers and leaves in shades of red, blue, and cream. The overall design of the rug is intricate and ornate, with a mix of bold colors and delicate patterns. The rug appears to be handmade, possibly by Turkmen people, as suggested by the title "Turkmen Bag Face".
