I have this piece in my collection for a long time. Is it a Khalyk and if so, is it a Tekke? It is very finely made. Many thanks in advance. Peter

The shape is like a khalyk, but the colors and designs have no relationship (that I can discern) with traditional Turkmen work. This has sort-of a William Morris vibe. Most khalyks were indeed woven by the Tekke, but I see no connection to them here, other than the shape. I suspect this was woven after 1970.
