Turkoman (Tekke) Chyrpy- Designed to be worn on the head, it has vestigial sleeves on the back, and is technically a headcovering, not a robe. The background of dark indigo silk indicates it to have been for a young woman. Finely embroidered tulips, symbolizing life and fertility, in a lattice of diamonds enliven the entire surface of this older example. The lining of paste resist-dyed and/or hand-stamped decorated cotton makes us believe this piece, tho in excellent condition, could have some age and possibly date from the late 19th century.
