Description

Size: 3ft 9in x 2ft 8in (115 x 80cm).
Antique Turkmen 'chyrpy' ladies ceremonial silk embroidered coat.
Circa 1880.
This fine example of a chyrpy is probably by the Tekke Turkmen of Southern Turkmenistan. The coat has false sleaves and was worn over the head of ladies on special occasions, especially weddings. The silk embroidery is on Adras semi silk indigo blue fabric. The lining is hand spun linen with a block printed design. The colour of the chyrpy shows the ladies status, A dark chyrpy like this one would be worn by a younger woman, while married or middle-aged women would wear yellow and older women would wear white.
The chyrpy is offered in excellent original condition.
