Rippling gently across a lake’s surface before colliding with the shoreline and stylized plant motifs, this hand-knotted carpet, titled Reflections, measures 4’11” x 6’8” and belongs to the Orley Shabahang Art Nouveau collection. The composition of Reflections consists of four shades of indigo, creating the illusion of depth and light reflecting off the water’s surface. Added details of cream and green wool also play with the illusion of the water reflecting its surroundings. Sweeping lines of dark indigo outline the tops of these ripples and connect the interior field to the border. Green flower motifs sit atop a cream and gold background, representing the shoreline. Bright shades of indigo and scarlet red, characterizing flower petals, contribute bright and contrasting tones to Reflections’ color palette. Beyond Reflections’ eye-catching design and colors, the craftsmanship of this piece truly sets it apart.
Orley Shabahang works house to house, village to village with our weavers, working to preserve the art of weaving as a cottage industry, and implementing ancient weaving methods to create the antiques of the future.
