SARDINIAN CARPET

Cotton

The surface presents a tight, even textured stripe of alternating ivory and slate-grey rows, the pattern reading almost as a fine houndstooth up close. Selvedges along one edge show a looped, scalloped finish in the same ivory tone, while the opposite edge is left plain and straight. The detail inset reveals the small-scale weave structure, with each band composed of tightly packed horizontal ridges.

Cotton

The field is left entirely open, given over to a small-scale geometric interlock of ivory and warm brown that reads as a running diagonal check across the surface. A finished selvage runs along one edge, punctuated by a neat row of looped tabs, while the opposite edge shows a plain cut finish. A close-up inset highlights the tight, even grid of the weave structure and the crisp alternation of the two tones.

Cotton

The surface is patterned in a tight, even grid of ivory and dark charcoal, the two tones interlocking in a small stepped motif that repeats steadily across the field. Along one edge a row of small looped tabs breaks the otherwise flat plane, while the remaining edges are finished flush and straight. A close-up inset at lower right isolates the same zigzag rhythm, showing how the dark and pale threads cross to form the pattern's diagonal steps.

Mohair and Cotton

The surface presents as a series of horizontal bands in varying textures, alternating between flat, ivory-toned passages and looped or curled rows of grey and taupe. Flecks of rust and warm brown are scattered irregularly throughout, breaking up the otherwise muted, neutral palette. A close-up inset at the lower right highlights the contrast between the smooth foundation and the nubbled, uneven pile rising from it.
