SGD 0.00

This fascinating village rug was woven around Hamadan, circa the mid-20th century. It belongs to a tradition in which patterns pass from mother to daughter, carrying the memory and artistic taste of generations.

Yet each weaver adds something of her own, perhaps the expression of a feeling, an interpretation of nature or a recollection of a story. Within the inherited design, these personal touches give the rug its individuality and a certain mystery. Their meanings are not always known, but they invite us to look, contemplate and discover something new.

Here, linked geometric medallions sit among branching stems, small flowers and little bird-like figures. Soft rose and earthy brown tones are enlivened by touches of blue, green and ivory, creating a beautiful balance between the bold composition and its many delicate details.

Woven with good quality wool on a cotton foundation, this is a piece that offers more than decoration. It can bring beauty and character to a room, with another layer of beauty in the generations of imagination reflected in its design.
