As you can see from the photos, due to the direction of the pile, the carpet appears significantly darker viewed from one end as opposed to the other. The gapylyk's design is heavily influenced by the traditional Turkmen craft of carpet weaving. Turkmen carpets are renowned for their beauty, strength, and durability. The carpet is a national symbol of Turkmenistan, and has been declared a state treasure – so much so that carpet patterns appear on Turkmenistan’s national flag. According to legend, the "precepts " left by Oguz Khan (the legendary ancestor of the Turkmen) to his sons are laid in the guls of the Turkmen carpet, with each tribe having its own traditional gul. In Turkmenistan, we have a saying: “Water is the life of Turkmen, the horse is the wings of Turkmen, the carpet is the soul of Turkmen,” and we couldn’t agree more. Turkmen carpets are made up of a series of borders around a central piece, featuring an elaborate and repeated motif known as a ‘gul’. Designs are typically geometric, with heavy use of octagons and other shapes in the borders. Every carpet is a unique piece of art. Browse our eBay store for more designs and sizes.
