They reside in the Republic of Turkmenistan and in Afghanistan. In the past, the Tekke lived nomadically and relied heavily on looting. Today most of them are settled and live as peaceful farmers. After the dissolution of the Soviet Empire, however, some have returned to nomadism. The Tekke mostly inhabit the now independent Republic of Turkmenistan, where they make rugs in the cities of Ashghabad and Mari and their vicinity. \n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e\nDuring the communist revolution, numerous Tekke clans migrated to the neighboring countries of Afghanistan and Iran. Others settled in Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. Tekke rugs are among the famous Turkmen rugs whose patterns are also reproduced in Pakistan. Tekke rugs are also traded as Bukhara rugs. \u003cb\u003eBukhara\u003c\/b\u003e (partly also Bokhara) is an oasis city in Uzbekistan, which is located along the former Silk Road. Although no rugs were knotted in Bukhara itself, the city gave its name to many oriental rugs, because they were traditionally exported to the West from Bukhara. But these rugs were knotted by Turkmen tribes like the Yomoudh or Tekke. This old Tekke is \u003cb\u003e more than 40 years old\u003c\/b\u003e and a true collector's item.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003ePatterns\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e The \u003cb\u003e abstract, geometric composition\u003c\/b\u003e creates the simple elegance of this Tekke. The pattern flatters the design of the room and does not take the attention away from its furniture, decoration and architectural elements.  It creates a pleasant atmosphere without dominating the style of the room.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e The repeating elements in the center field of this Tekke rug have no specific center (so-called \u003cb\u003e repeating pattern\u003c\/b\u003e).

Virgin wool is obtained through the gentle shearing of sheep. Virgin wool is a sustainable, natural raw material with a number of impressive properties; due to the wool's natural fat content, the surface repels water droplets and is thus naturally impervious to dirt. Wool also offers excellent thermal insulation, has a regulating effect on living climate and muffles sound.
