"At torba ilgich" is a late 19th-early 20th century embroidered textile piece, possibly a prayer rug, created by an unknown Lakai artist. The vibrant textile features a variety of colors and shapes, including intricate floral motifs, geometric patterns, and swirling designs, all meticulously stitched onto a warm, orange-toned background. The fringed border adds another layer of visual interest to this striking example of Central Asian textile art. Currently, the piece is part of the collection at the Minneapolis Institute of Art.
