Fine Neoclassical Needlepoint Carpet of Robert Adam Design

About the Item

English needlepoint carpets have been produced since the 16th Century, but experienced a real renaissance during the 18th and 19th Centuries, incorporating a vast array of new colours and styles - this contemporary example represents a high-grade reproduction of the needlepoint carpets of this era, drawing from the iconic works of famed Neoclassical architect and designer, Robert Adam. It employs a stamped motif, repeated across the field in a wonderfully restrained colour palette, with tones of muted grey-black, caramel, and aubergine grey, with soft sage green accents. An elegant carpet, rare in this square format, to suit a sophisticated interior. A similar piece is available in a larger size - please enquire for further details.

  • Arts & Crafts Donegal Carpet
    Located in London, GB
    Antique Donegal Carpets, woven in the town of Killybegs, County Donegal, from the 1890s onwards, represent some of the most unique and highly sought-after European weavings - originally, a Western interpretation of earlier Turkish Oushak carpets, incorporating a wide array of design elements borrowed from both the Arts and Crafts movement and traditional Celtic art.
