Exemplary of high epoch (half of 19th. cent.) probably knotted by the Nogais, nomadic cattle farmer of Turkish origin, that submit to the different cultural influences of the zones of border, from this thing the particular union of patterns. The colors are wisely approached and the patterns are detailed and of small proportions (hooked and stair polygons inserted inside the octagons). Very beautiful. It's low pile but in perfect state of conservation.
