Flowering bushes cross this garden with donkey and ibis tapestry from side to side, a donkey standing among them, ibis flying in file and reeds and water along the base.
Details
- Size: 69 x 41 in (175 x 104 cm)
- Material: handspun wool on a cotton warp
- One of a kind: woven freehand, no sketch or cartoon behind the warp. It is the only one. The photographs show this exact piece.
Hanging it
Its wide format is made for the wall above a sofa, a bed or a sideboard. It has no sleeve or rod pocket. Sew hook-and-loop tape along the top of the 69 x 41 in panel with the matching strip on a long batten, use a clip rail, or ask a tailor for a rod casing.
Woven freehand
Handspun wool on a cotton warp, with nothing traced behind it: the line of flying ibis and the donkey among the flowers were composed on the loom. It works as an ibis tapestry and a garden tapestry at once.
