A tall, narrow tree of life with small scenes of village life set among its branches.
- Size: 149 x 52 cm (59 x 20 in)
- Material: Handwoven wool
- Style: Wissa Wassef style
- Dye: Coloured with natural plant dyes
- Signature: Signed by the weaver in the weave
- One of a kind: woven freehand with no sketch or cartoon behind the warp, so no second copy exists. The photographs show this exact piece.
Its long, narrow format runs along a hallway, above a headboard or over a long sofa.
Hanging: the tapestry arrives without a sleeve or rod pocket. The simplest method is hook-and-loop tape sewn along the top edge, with the matching half fixed to a wooden batten on the wall. A clip rail also works, or a tailor can sew on a casing for a rod.
