The Turkmenistan flag: carpet guls, crescent and stars

Turkmenistan’s flag is one of the most detailed national flags in the world. On a green field, a vertical red stripe runs near the hoist, and within it are five carpet guls, the traditional medallion patterns woven into Turkmen carpets, stacked one above the other. Each gul belongs to one of the five major tribes, and together they stand for national unity. Beneath them are two crossed olive branches, added in 1997 to mark the country’s policy of permanent neutrality. In the upper part of the green field, beside the red stripe, is a white crescent moon with five white five-pointed stars, representing a bright future and the five provinces of the country. The flag was first adopted in 1992 and took its present form in 2001. Our Turkmenistan flag reproduces the intricate guls in their proper colours, which is a real test of any printed flag.

Nowruz, carpets and horses

Nowruz, the spring new year on 21 March, is the great celebration for Turkmen families, and the flag is also central to Carpet Day in May and to celebrations of the Akhal-Teke, the golden horse breed famous worldwide. In Britain the flag is bought by Turkmen students and families, by companies with links to Ashgabat, by carpet dealers and textile enthusiasts, and by horse lovers who keep or admire Akhal-Tekes.
