1960's Egyptian Flatweave Carpet with Modern Style
Located in Dallas, TX
79103 Vintage Egyptian Kilim Tapestry Rug, 02'02 x 03'04. This exquisite handwoven wool Egyptian pictorial tapestry rug is a striking representation of traditional life and pastoral scenes that resonate with cultural depth and artistic expression. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the flatweave rug showcases a variety of animals commonly found in the rural landscapes of Egypt. Depicted are camels and goats, each rendered in natural, earthy tones that speak to the organic dyes derived from the region's abundant natural resources. The inclusion of a human figure, possibly a shepherd, anchors the composition in human experience, bridging the gap between nature and civilization.
The background of the tapestry is a rich, textured gray (greenish undertones), representing the fertile grounds of the Nile Valley, which has historically been the lifeblood of Egyptian agriculture and rural life. This backdrop serves as a vivid canvas that highlights the vibrant hues of the animals, lending a sense of vitality and movement to the scene. Each animal is colored distinctively, allowing their individual forms to stand out, while also harmonizing with the overall palette to create a cohesive visual narrative.

Whether you hang them behind your bed as a dazzling alternative to a headboard or over the sofa as a large-scale focal point in the living room, vintage tapestries can introduce an array of textures and colors to any space in your home.
Woven wall hangings haven’t consistently enjoyed the popularity or earned the highbrow status that other types of wall decorations have over the years, at least not since the 1970s, which was somewhat of a heyday for tapestries. Today, however, these tactile works of art are seeing a renaissance, as modern weavers are forging new paths in the medium while the demand for antique and vintage tapestries continues to grow.
“We are drawn to texture in environments, and we see tapestries as a subtle layer of soft ornament,” says Lauren Larson of the New York design duo Material Lust. Indeed, and a lot of opportunity comes along when decorating with this distinctive brand of soft ornament.
Think of wall hangings as paintings created by hand with fabric instead of oil or watercolors. If you’re not simply securing your treasure to a wall with nails, pushpins or Velcro, tapestries can be stretched over a frame, used to create a canopy in a cozy living-room corner, hung from a rod or placed inside a shadowbox. And because this kind of textile art is hundreds of years old, options abound with respect to subjects and designs.
For richly detailed depictions of landscapes and garden scenes, look to antique Chinese tapestries and Japanese tapestries. Aubusson tapestries are ornate wall hangings manufactured in central France that are also characterized by romantic portrayals of nature. For weavers of mid-century modern tapestries, as well as those working in textile arts today, the styles and subject matter are too numerous to mention, with artists exploring experimental shapes, bold colors and provocative abstract designs.
Antique, new and vintage tapestries can make a room feel warm and welcoming — find yours on 1stDibs now.
