Portospino carpet
The artefact
This large carpet in Sardinian wool featuring the juxtaposition of numerous bright colors draws inspiration from the fressade, blankets of the textile tradition of Nule, renowned for the wide range of colors and geometric patterns. It is part of the Tessiture (weavings) collection of the clearly recognisable production by Eugenia Pinna, characterised by the experimental use of different weaving techniques aimed at creating striking new decorations.
