Nepalese handwoven wool rug, 157 cm by 87.5 cm, made from 100% natural sheep’s wool and GoodWeave certified.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful handwoven Nepalese wool rug with a timeless, minimalist design. The cream-white ground is decorated with dark brown geometric motifs and abstract border symbols reminiscent of Tifinagh script (the Berber alphabet). In the lower right corner, a stylised lizard or chameleon figure — a recurring symbol in Berber culture representing protection and adaptability.
The overall aesthetic has a strong Mid-Century Modern quality, making this rug a versatile fit for both vintage and contemporary interiors.
Provenance & certification:
This rug was imported by Bhoecht AG (Switzerland), a specialist importer of Nepalese and Tibetan handwoven rugs, and sold through Huylebroeck & Co, Antwerp road 264, Lier — a reputable Belgian oriental rug dealer. The original quality label (guarantee number 184416) and GoodWeave (formerly Rugmark) certification label are present, confirming the rug is free of child labour and made with natural, chemical-free wool dyes.
Condition: Good. Shows normal signs of use consistent with age. No tears, holes or significant staining.
