An Orientalist carpet based on Coptic fabric patterns or Roman mosaic reliefs, Algeria for the European market
A rare carpet belonging to a small group of knottings made probably in France after drawing of Roman mosaics
Decoration consisting of a central eight-pointed star motif and four square motifs decorated with a network of orange geometric lines, all set against a black background and of a certain decorative power. Carpet most probably made by an identifiable workshop that we have not been able to locate. We know that a draftsman (cardboard maker) made a special series related to the rediscovery of Coptic textiles and mosaics at the beginning of the 20th century. However, we are unable to give his identity. Good general condition. Minor wear and tear.
