Description from the seller
Celtics, Wall Tapestry Honoring Ireland and Boston
"Celtics" is a singular original creation that blends history, sports passion, and cultural heritage. Through this hand-tufted wall tapestry, I wanted to pay tribute to Boston's deep Irish roots and to its mythical team, while revisiting their famous logo with a symbolic and distinctly contemporary aesthetic.
Symbolism and colors: Adorned with two orange triskele figures, an ancestral symbol of Ireland representing balance and the link between past, present, and future, this decorative tapestry evokes Celtic spirituality. At its center sits a stylized shamrock, a nod to the famous shamrock, a universal good luck charm. The colors of the Irish flag (green, white, and orange) strongly emphasize this vibrant cultural identity.
A textile work that traveled: Inspired by the history of Irish immigration in the 19th century, "Celtics" is far more than a simple decoration: it is a true traveling companion. I carried this piece with me to Boston, tracing its very inspirations. Photographed in several iconic locations around the city, the tapestry absorbed the local urban energy, adding to its texture an emotional and narrative dimension unique to the work. I invite you to discover these photographs to see the piece alive in its original context!
A unique character for your interior: Hand-tufted with rigor in my studio, this wall tapestry is designed with a back hook, ready to be installed. In total opposition to standardized décor, it will transform your space into a place vibrant with history. Whether you’re a basketball enthusiast, a lover of Irish culture, or a collector of rare pieces, this textile work will bring a true soul to your interior.

Seller's Story
Based near Toulouse, “Signé Léon” is Léon’s creative universe, an artist and art craftsman specializing in contemporary textile design and the tufting technique.
Halfway between traditional craftsmanship and pop/modern culture, I design and completely by hand manufacture original wall decorative works. My artistic approach rests on exploring wool, playing with textures, relief effects (3D sculpture of the fiber) and vibrant color palettes to bring visually striking pieces to life.
In my workshop in the south of France, I rethink the concept of the rug to elevate it to the rank of a true work of art and wall decoration. Each creation is unique, conceived with a high standard of finishes (neat backs, invisible integrated wall mounts).
Through my auctions, I offer my original creations: graphic, poetic or abstract pieces, intended for collectors and home-decor enthusiasts seeking a bold, warm and modern textile touch.
Welcome to my textile universe!”}
