Description from the seller
Rare Ethnic Patchwork Double-Sided Tapestry with 3D Embroidery – Miao / Oriental Tribal Art.
Splendid and excellent artisanal textile piece for collection, characterized by the rare feature of being completely decorated and embroidered on both sides (double-sided):
Lado A (Front): It presents a central circular medallion finely embroidered with symbolism felines/cats and a frog, framed by a rich geometric patchwork in "Lattice/Quilting" motifs and side panels with mythological creatures, dragons and zoomorphic motifs.
Lado B (Back): Composed of a grid of 16 geometric patchwork squares, each containing three-dimensionally raised appliqués and embroidery depicting insects, scorpions, lizards and small hand-padded creatures.
A unique piece for its complexity and richness of detail, ideal both as a wall tapestry and as an exhibit piece of ethnic textile art.
