Fachralo Kazak Red-ground Fachralo Kazaks are encountered far less
frequently than green-ground pieces. This elite example from an old
American private collection, with a spacious composition of generously
drawn designs, is comparable to a red Fachralo in the Textile Museum,
Washington D.C., published by Tschebull. They only differ in border
design. – The upper finish has been expertly repiled, otherwise in very
good condition, with the original selvedges and lower kilim finish.
