Lot Details

suitable as a large bolster pillow. 1150 x 525mm (approx 40 x 21"). CONDITION REPORT: Additional images show the bag padded out with blankets (it does not come with these). The front is finished with wool pile face, (strongly dyed, no evident fading) hand knotted on cotton weft and warp. There is a broad 'guard' area at the mouth that has no pile knotting but is rather decorated with weaving and small tufts. The reverse is flat kilim weave cotton. The mouth is open and would be stitched closed to make the cushion. Overall good condition.
