Description

This handwoven rya wall hanging blurs the line between textile and fine art. Crafted in the mid-20th century using high-quality wool, its bold vertical composition features deep blacks, charcoal greys, cream tones, and a striking burst of red at the center. The deep-pile texture and sculptural variation in yarn density create a dimensional surface that changes with the light. Designed for wall display, this piece hangs from a solid rod using built-in 1” loops and is finished with a 3.5” hand-tied fringe along the bottom. A rare find that brings warmth, rhythm, and modernist elegance to any space.
