This vintage Egyptian wool tapestry is a striking wall art piece that captures the serene beauty of desert life. Handwoven in warm, gradient tones, the background transitions from deep burnt orange to dusky brown, evoking the glow of a desert sunset. Silhouetted against this vibrant backdrop are a group of camels, gracefully positioned in motion across a dune, with a glowing white sun setting behind them.

The minimal yet evocative composition reflects a sense of stillness and timelessness, characteristic of traditional Egyptian desert scenes. Made from natural wool, the tapestry features soft white fringes on both ends, enhancing its artisanal charm. It’s a soulful, decorative piece perfect for adding warmth and cultural depth to interiors inspired by Middle Eastern or bohemian aesthetics.

Authentic vintage and antique Egyptian tapestries and kilims are handwoven with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and unique.

Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to the handmade and preloved nature of these rugs, slight imperfections and flaws are not considered defects.

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!
