AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Kilim 'Talatat', 155x235 cm, contemporary & handmade from sheep wool - condition: new.
Handwoven in Egypt, in the Nile Delta, under fair conditions.

Colors: natural white, old pink, violet, Gün

The design of this kilim is inspired by the elongated limestone blocks used in the construction of ancient Egyptian buildings. Their standardized size and lightweight nature allowed for more efficient construction. These blocks, also known as 'Talatat,' were typical of the Amarna period in ancient Egypt. The design captures the aesthetics of these historic building elements, showcasing elongated blocks in a harmonious pattern. It exudes a subtle elegance and evokes the artistic architecture of bygone eras.
