  • Full Description

    Design format resembling two torbas or mafrash side panels is unusual but not unheard of. The bottom panel seems to be a highly stylized Turkoman elem design. Though lacking the delicate grace of an early Turkoman elem the result is dynamic nevertheless. An interpolation of the top panel design results in a Turkoman 2-1-2 pattern of hexagonal guls with diamond shaped secondaries. The centers of the primary elements seem to be based on a chemche motif.
