Orient-Teppiche Geelhaar.
Geelhaar was founded in 1869 and continues operation in Bern to this very day—though their services focus on carpet cleaning and repairs rather than importing exceptional Oriental rugs. Solbach encourages the sort of voyeurism associated with carpets from the Middle East: patterned dress, a trusty camel, vibrant textiles, and ancient columns that perfectly frame the scene—and are sublimely transportive.
