Lightning strikes in Peabody , Ma. today at Defillpo auction .
Lot # 36 , Tekke , Salor , Turkmen mat pre-sale estimate $1-200.00 ended up selling for $16,750 plus 23% comm.
The item !
Detail back.
Detail showing material quality.
Detail showing the thin center.
Decent condition , a scarce but not particularly popular design but very good quality. It caused quite a commotion during and after the sale with plenty more to be said with lots of opinions floating on the internet concerning the piece !
That said even under the controversial circumstances a pretty good and fresh piece , in my humble opinion !
One more thing good luck to # 10 , the winner !
