This charming vintage Egyptian tapestry kilim depicts a lively village scene, handwoven with colourful wool on a natural ground. The design features stylised houses in warm shades of red, ochre, blue, and brown, framed by trees and palm motifs, while camels, donkeys, and villagers animate the foreground in a story-like procession. The bold, naïve artistry reflects traditional Egyptian folk expression, blending utility with decorative storytelling. With its earthy palette and whimsical narrative, this tapestry wall art captures the essence of rural life along the Nile, making it both a cultural artefact and a vibrant accent for any interior.

It’s 1990 all over again!

In the early 1990’s, my wife I were obsessed with hand woven, vegetable dyed Turkish carpets from Azeri/Woven Legends. We spent so much time at ABC Carpet & Home in NYC, we became good friends with the head rug buyer!! We haven’t purchased a rug in years, but I found a wonderful Woven Legends carpet at Shopvintagerugs and bought myself an early birthday present. The rug was shipped from Pakistan on Monday, made its way to Dubai, then Boston, Memphis and finally arrived to us today. I couldn’t be happier!
