HERE WE HAVE
: A vintage, woven rug or tapestry! I really don't know much of anything about it, but it does look like it's African and handmade. Looks like maybe raffia cloth, woven palm fibers, and then possibly kasai velvet at the center of the diamond shapes..but again, I'm no expert, so please see photos!
Will ship folded as it already has wrinkles.
CONDITION:
Being sold as is! The pattern on the piece is very cool, although the fluffier spots on it feel sort of matted down. The edges aren't perfectly straight and there are loose fibers all around. There's a dark stain on one end. Has wrinkles and some bends around the edges, could use a weighted flattening.
Please view photos!
MEASUREMENTS:
Whole piece measures approximately 23" long and 20" wide, but it varies some in spots since the edges are completely straight, and it does stretch some.
SHIPPING:
Calculated.
Please view shipping options, there may be a better (faster, more affordable, etc.) carrier available to your zip code than what is listed first.
