HANDWOVEN EGYPTIAN WOOL TAPESTRY — SIGNED GARDEN OF BIRDS — ONE OF A KIND
A garden grown wild in wool: fantastical plants in flame orange, rose pink, lime, and teal crowd the whole weaving, red blooms rising through the leaves and a single sunflower glowing at the edge. Doves sail the blue sky above — and look closely at the heart of the thicket, where geese shelter among the pale grasses, half-hidden the way real birds are. A garden you keep finding new things in.
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, bloom, 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.
