HANDWOVEN EGYPTIAN WOOL TAPESTRY — SIGNED BLOSSOMING BLUE TREE — ONE OF A KIND
A tree in full bloom at the heart of a golden garden: its leaves woven in blue, its branches scattered with white and crimson blossoms, while doves dip toward the flowers and a dark bird swoops in from the marigold sky. Below, geese wade through green thickets bursting with red blooms. The whole weaving glows — orange, blue, green, red — like a garden at the warmest hour of the day.
What makes this piece truly extraordinary is how it was made: the weaver works entirely from imagination — no sketch, no cartoon, no guide on the loom — improvising every leaf, blossom, and bird as the weaving grows. No two pieces are ever alike; each tapestry is a one-of-a-kind expression of the weaver's artistic genius.
The piece is signed by the weaver in Arabic, woven directly into the fabric — the living tradition of Egypt's celebrated village tapestry weaving.
HANDWOVEN — ONE OF ONE
An original textile artwork in the flat slit-tapestry technique. The natural wool texture, slit-weave joins, and warp fringe are the signatures of true handweaving. Small irregularities are the hand of the artist, not flaws.
SIZE
30 x 20 inches / 75 x 50 cm / approx. 2.5 x 1.6 ft — landscape format
WHERE IT WORKS
Warmth for a kitchen, hallway, child's room, home office, or breakfast nook — the marigold ground and blue tree glow against white and neutral walls. Pairs beautifully with our Garden of Birds weaving, same size, by the same hand. One of one; when it's gone, it's gone.
