    The artefact

    This cotton and natural wool tapestry features silk brocade flowers and mother-on-pearl leaves. The background is woven on a traditional handloom, with the linear design typical of the traditional dough cloths, while the use of the brocade is inspired by the rich Sardinian attires. The piece is part of the 2013 Prendas limited edition collection.
