Yomud chuvals have an enormous range of
design variations, but examples with Tekke torba guls as the primary
medallion are very rare. The owner only knows of two other examples:
Cassin & Hoffmeister Tent Band Tent Bag #14, which is similar in all
design elements except a different floral form in the elem, and
another very similar unpublished example with a syrga main border.
Both the major and minor guls here have a chunkier and more
simplified drawing than Tekke renditions, presumably because of the
lower knot count. The forms in the elem are unusual, too, although
sometimes seen in 9-gul Yomud chuvals with Erre minor guls.
