MARLA MALLETT: TEXTILES
Uzbek Warp-patterned Cover
Uzbekistan. Early 20th century.
Wool. 5'1"x 7'10"
|
An old technique used for making intricate
tent bands appears here in a cover or rug. One
long band with subtly varying side-by-side blue
and green figured stripes was woven, then it was
cut into 6 sections that were sewed together. The
handsome piece is in excellent condition, with
one small reweave.
