Carpets with birds and diamonds

The artefact

Large stylised birds and the rich geometric-patterned border characterise this elegant carpet crafted according to the tuttopieno (full bodied) pibiones relief technique. The neutral shades of the motif contrast with the natural white background, made vibrant by the masterly designed details in warm orange and yellow shades. Entirely hand woven, it can be customised in size and colour.
