Vintage Ersari Turkoman Rug
7 × 10 ft · 224 × 300 cm
A vintage Afghan Ersari — rows of tribal Güls in muted earth tones on a warm camel ground, the type known as the “Gentlemen's Carpet.”
Ersari — One of the Turkoman Tribes
The Ersari are one of the main Turkmen tribes, with lands spanning the steppes between Merv and Mazar-i-Sharif in northern Afghanistan. Their carpets are known for robust construction and the octagonal Gül motif, a tribal emblem repeated in rows. In the trade, Ersari rugs are sometimes called “Gentlemen's Carpets”, a name linked to their use in British libraries and smoking rooms. This vintage piece is hand-knotted in wool with the muted tribal Gül drawing and warm earth-tone palette typical of the type.
Colour and Composition
Three columns of large octagonal Güls are set in rows across a warm camel ground, each Gül worked in dark indigo-blue and black with rust, brick-brown and ivory detail, and small cruciform plant motifs scattered between them. The field is framed by multiple minor borders carrying zigzag, diamond and star motifs. The palette has a quiet, settled warmth — earth tones softened by decades of use.
Presence in the Room
At 224 × 300 cm (6.7 m²) this is a large room-size rug. Three contexts in which it comes into its own:
- Library or study: beneath leather chairs and dark wood, the Ersari Gül sits in a fitting setting.
- Living room: under a sofa configuration, the muted earth palette gives the room a calm foundation.
- Dining room for 8–10: the Gül pattern reads clearly from above.
In a study in Hampstead or the library of a Highland lodge, beneath leather chairs and dark wood, the camel ground and Gül pattern look as if they had always been there — and it reaches London or Edinburgh within 2–7 working days.
