Curator's Notes
Caden has an entirely blue field which shifts about ⅓ of the way in to an almost aquamarine, adding graphic detail by merely changing color. Its border is triple-layered, with thick lines and triangles.
Material DetailsThese pieces are hand-knotted with a soft blend of sheep and lambswool. Unparalleled for centuries, wool has a hydrophobic layer which repels dust and dirt, as well as lanolin, which provides its trademark luster and protects the fiber from breaking or shedding. It's woven onto wool wefts, adding enviable body and heft.
