AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A journey into authentic Apulian craftsmanship with this wonderful trio of perfectly round doilies, also coming directly from the precious chests of Salento’s dowry. This set celebrates the timeless elegance of circular symmetry, all handmade with geometric precision that will leave you spellbound.
Dating to the mid-20th century (the 1950s/1960s), these three pieces display three different and complementary levels of complexity:
The Grand Classic (70x70 cm): A true centerpiece centerpiece. The weave is dense, rich with concentric circles that create a hypnotic floral and geometric motif radiating outward. It takes months of work and an incredibly steady hand.
The “Sun” Doily (44x44 cm): Characterized by a splendid raised scalloped edge and motifs reminiscent of grains of wheat or stylized leaves, arranged to create a dynamic three-dimensional effect.
The Small Star (23x23 cm): A small jewel featuring a beautiful six-pointed star at the center enclosed in a delicate honeycomb lattice.
Three scalable sizes, perfect to decorate with a Boho-Chic touch or refined rustic charm in different corners of the same room, bringing home the warmth and craftsmanship of the ancient Southern Italian embroiderers.
