PART SILK ELAM PAIR

157 x 103 and 142 x 102

Charming twins woven by the skilled weavers of Elam city on a silk foundation with fine Kork baby lambswool. The design is adapted from old pure silk carpets and marvelously recreated here. The difference in size arises from the hand-weaving process whereby two sisters worked on these in parallel or the same weaver created them in successive years.

Sold together.
