Woven Mat

Iraka (Vegetal Fiber) in Natural Color Way

The field is left entirely open, an undyed natural tone divided into three horizontal panels by narrow woven seams that cross the width. A plain border in the same pale tan frames the piece, and an inset detail shows the coarse, open basket-like structure of the surface up close.

The field is left entirely open, articulated by fine, evenly spaced vertical stripes running the full length of the piece in soft ivory and pale grey tones. There is no border to speak of, only a narrow line of contrasting selvage along the edges, and no other motifs interrupt the plain striped surface. The detail view shows the close texture of these lines, revealing a subtle sheen where the lighter and darker yarns catch the light differently.

A narrow runner divided into two vertical panels of differing widths, each banded horizontally with irregular stripes in shades of taupe, warm beige, and dark brown. The stripes vary in thickness and spacing, creating a loosely rhythmic rather than symmetrical pattern, with no border framing the composition and the flatwoven surface left otherwise plain. A detail inset at lower right shows the close texture of the striped bands.

A shaped ivory cartouche floats at the center of a dark brown ground, holding a loose bouquet of pink and blue blossoms tied with a pale scrolling ribbon. Sprays of flowers and acanthus scrolls in cream, rose, and slate blue fill the corners and radiate along the field's edges, echoed by a border of continuous floral garlands on a soft blue ground. The palette throughout stays within muted rose, cream, sage, and blue-gray tones against the near-black field.

Floral, center medallion 

A sage-green field is scattered evenly with small four-petaled florets, offering a quiet counterpoint to the central roundel. That medallion is formed by a laurel-leaf wreath enclosing a scrolling acanthus and flower motif rendered in cream and soft gold. A continuous laurel-leaf border in matching gold and green frames the composition, echoing the wreath at its center.
