Family-woven, Embroidered Textile - Laos - 1930
ANTIQUE EMBROIDERED TEXTILE – LAOS – CIRCA 1930
A rare and elegant family heirloom woven on a small loom, combining a brick-colored hemp background with delicate silk embroidery.
The design, rich in graphic detail, consists of geometric and stylized motifs arranged around a central architectural motif reminiscent of a palace. The piece as a whole demonstrates traditional textile craftsmanship and a remarkable sense of decorative composition.
An antique piece of ethnographic interest, from the Guinaudeau Collection, which was notably featured in two exhibitions: in Poitiers in 2015, and then at the Abbey of Nanteuil-en-Vallée in 2017.
