Carpet with flowery diamonds
The artefact
The elegant large carpet in wool is crafted according to the tuttopieno (full bodied) pibiones relief technique. The traditional motif of the flowered diamond is in the centre of the simple but refined composition, complemented by a sophisticated border with a Greek fret and floral motif. Made in elegant bordeaux against a natural white background, it can be customised in size and colour.
