This gorgeous vintage Egyptian Harrania tapestry is a vibrant and whimsical work of folk art, handwoven with deep cultural roots and expressive charm. Crafted in the Harrania village near Giza, famed for its community of artisan weavers, this tapestry captures a lively pastoral scene of geese and goslings swimming through stylised waves and lily pads on a shimmering blue water background.

The composition is filled with dynamic movement and joyful colour: green and white birds with red beaks glide through the scene, while lush leafy clusters and flowering reeds provide balance and rhythm. The bold red signature in Arabic script adds an authentic artistic flourish, marking it as a signed piece by a Harrania studio artist.

Woven with natural wool in a rich palette, this tapestry is more than decoration; it’s a storytelling textile that celebrates nature, harmony, and the handmade artistry of Egypt. Perfect as a wall hanging, it brings a soulful and artistic spirit into any space.

Authentic vintage and antique Egyptian kilims are hand-woven with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and one of a kind.

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.

Our kilims are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life.

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!
