I spotted this Yomut Carpet on
www.Cloudband.com offered by one of the World's
great dealers Dennis Dodds.
Trusted
Resource List Rug & Carpet Dealers In The
U.S. Maqam.
Dodds' Full
Description:
This rare design is seen on only one other
piece that I am aware of: the McCoy Jones
Collection in the San Francisco DeYoung Museum.
Three rows of clearly articulated Tauk-Nuska guls
with crests and large diamond-shaped secondary
ornaments containing archaic tree forms with sky
blue and green ground colours are organized over
the liver brown field. An identical, vigorously
scaled, "arrowhead" meander border is
seen in Schurmann, Central Asian Rugs, pl.17,
p.95. One of the beautiful flowerhead elems is
complete.

JBOC's Notes: One thing that attracted me
to this Yomut Carpet was the trident device in the
end skirt. This device is seen in Yomut and in
Chodor carpets.
