Located in the northeast of Iran, the Khorasan region is the most important in Iran, the main city of which is Meshed. Often confused with 'Bukhara' rugs (tekke, yomouth), this very fine djoval was made in Khorasan. Over the generations, large groups of Turkmen have settled in Khorasan. The oldest groups can date back to the 15th century. The Russian revolution and the creation of a border between the USSR and Iran limited the movement of these groups and many Turkmen have lived in Iran since that time.

The djoval is a large rectangular saddle bag used by nomads. The center composed of an alignment of archetypal göls (primitive symbols) interspersed with secondary göls on a red field is framed by beautiful borders.
