(Connoisseur-Caliber) ("New Arrivals Gallery") This piece expresses the layers of folkloric charm unique to 19th-century Bakshaish weavings, while utilizing great artistic control to create an intriguing spacious visage. It enchants viewers with its simple yet compelling design of an unadorned, softly striated field of dark undyed camelhair that is subtly abrashed (artistically color striated) to effectively create the sense of visual depth. This ‘Window to Eternity’ is enclosed by four stepped-edged cornerpieces of ivory, featuring blossoms of azure, rust red and indigo. This is all surrounded by a series of secondary borders, the innermost of rust with a charming floral meander, followed by several guardstripes, including a 'Fence of Security' border. A final margin of lighter toned, undyed camelhair completes the frame. Extremely good pile condition means this narrow area rug can be utilized in myriad applications on the floor, or as a compelling work of contemplative wall art.
