Lot: 67
Kazaks with large botehs in a composition of wide diagonal stripes are
rather rare. This design is more often seen in the Genje region. However,
the knotting structure, palette and typically high pile are clear indicators
of a provenance in the Kazak region. – Both end finishes have been expertly
repiled. Original selvedges, full pile preserved.
