Curatorial note
An extraordinary nomadic carpet combining three distinct weaving techniques in a single piece: knotted pile, flatweave and embroidery — a feat of rare technical mastery. The composition is organised around a magnificent bifurcating Tree of Life spreading symmetrically across a warm grey-beige ground, its branches built from stacked tribal panels in amber, black, ivory and rust. Entirely reversible, both faces reveal a different facet of the same design. At four by six metres this is one of the largest and most technically complex pieces in the collection.
