A one-of-a-kind contemporary handwoven wool needlepoint rug, The piece carries an olive ground with an allover pattern in the formal needlepoint vocabulary.
Needlepoint rugs are made by stitching wool yarn through an open-weave canvas backing, producing a flat, embroidery-like surface — very different from the looped pile of knotted carpets. The technique has roots in formal European needlepoint traditions stretching back centuries; contemporary production carries the technique forward with updated color palettes and proportions.
Hand-woven wool. Authentic one-of-a-kind contemporary piece.
