About the Item
This wonderful embroidered band was created in India in the early 19th Century. The band was originally designed to form part of a skirt or dress. It still may be used for this purpose, or it could be placed on display and enjoyed purely as an exquisite piece of workmanship.
The textile is made from crimson (red) satin which has been finely embroidered with yellow, turquoise and black silk. The craftsperson has worked by hand, delicately chain-stitching a variety of motifs into the fabric. The body of the textile is decorated with alternating rows of peacocks and flower sprays. Parrots and flowers feature in an ornamental border, which extends along the bottom of the band.

Large Romanian Knotted Carpet, Attributed to Tuduc
By Theodor Tuduc 1
Located in London, GB
This beautiful, vibrant carpet has been attributed to the important Romanian carpet-maker, Theodor Tuduc (1888-1893). Tuduc ran a prestigious workshop in the 19th century which specialised in the restoration and replication of antique rugs. This item, for instance, is one of a small group of carpets which were knotted after early Caucasian ‘dragon’ rugs. Tuduc's copies of antique rugs were so beautiful and accurate that they have become almost as collectable as the originals.
The carpet field is knotted with beautiful stylised depictions of animals, birds and dragons, as well as fruit trees, flowers, and foliage. These designs have been rendered in red, orange, light blue, turquoise, navy, green, mustard yellow, and off-white. This field is set within a border, knotted with similarly colored foliate motifs against an off-white background.
