Textiles | Turkmen Bokche

A rare Tekke? Turkmen Bokche (Quran bag) with very fine silk embroidery and silver with pounded gold and carnelian jewelry pieces. Lined with green hand-spun cotton and red silk velvet. Clasp is a beautiful turquoise stone set in silver and gold. It also appears to have been embroidered with Arabic script. I have not seen another like it. SOLD
