About the Item

This hand-loomed Tibetan wool blanket is a rare vintage piece. Its thick pile would have been used for sleeping on or under during the cold nights in the Himalayas. In Tibet, it would also have been draped around the shoulders as a blanket. Today, it could serve multiple purposes, including as an area rug or wall hanging. Featuring bold red and grey end panels along top and bottom, it is a fashionable accessory piece for many different styles of interior design. It was hand-woven on a small loom from excellent highland Tibetan wool, giving it its wonderful natural creamy white color. Sewn together from 5 individual panels, this is the traditional nomadic technique for making traditional carpets in the Himalayan mountains. This rug would be suitable as a throw rug in a low traffic area such as a bedroom or it could be used as a throw on a sofa in cold weather. This piece comes from Joseph Carini's Private Reserve Collection. On his travels around the world, Carini has curated a collection of fine and rare vintage textiles and rugs. He is enamored by ancient techniques, natural dyes, and cultural symbology. Dimensions: 5'3'' (L) x 6'3'' (W) Materials: Wool Reference #35682
