A beautifully detailed 100% wool wall hanging, handwoven in earthy tones of ochre, terracotta, muted blue, and natural cream. The textile depicts a vibrant village scene, with stylised figures engaged in daily life – carrying baskets, working the land, and gathering together – set against a mountainous backdrop.
The weaving technique gives the piece a rich textural quality, with subtle variations in tone and surface that highlight the craftsmanship. The use of soft, natural fibres not only enhances durability but also adds warmth and depth, making it both a decorative and tactile work of art.
Fringed along the bottom edge, the hanging retains its original handmade charm and brings a strong cultural and narrative presence to any interior. It would serve beautifully as a statement wall piece, bridging both folk art tradition and mid-century textile design.
