Notes on Culture & Antique Art, Ethnic Decor & Vintage Fashion | Wovensouls Art Gallery
A silk weaving – probably a shawl or runner once, with several section so fheavy wear but still lovely!
The good news is that the wear only affects the supplementary thread and the base is intact.
Still wearable as a stole as the worn / rubbed down areas get lost within the folds.
A lovely piece overall.
Am letting it go as I have too many textiles that are waiting for their turn to get my attention!
Priced to sell.
14 inches x 60 inches.

This item has spent a lifetime being used for the purpose of its creation with the original artist/user. Signs of this life lived heartily may be present on the piece in the form of stains, thread loss, loose threads, holes, tears, color run and other imperfections. Therefore the condition must be assumed to be “not” perfect. More photos of such imperfections will be provided on request.
