("Gold Coasts Collection") This formal area-size carpet is an indubitably profound masterpiece. Endeavoring for greatness, an unwavering, virtuoso panache for color combining infuses every blossom, branch, leaf, and feather in this stunning illustration of the beloved Tree of Life format from a master weaver. The colors chosen for every flowering branch are positioned for maximum compositional balance and artistic effect in the field, while the robust, lifelike roses at bottom almost jump off of the luminous creme toned “canvas." Drawn directly from nature, birds in arboreal action feature exotically hued plumage in the sinuously intertwined trees. An awe-inspiring diorama in the mocha-toned border is no less enthralling with four different idyllic tableaus, some including families of native deer, with an impressive variety of additional floral species rendered with artistic ablomb.
