On the Design:

A navy blue field with dusty rose floral patterns enfolds a field of the same warm tones, which underscores floral patterns with a particular emphasis on light blue and beige-brown among the many hues at play—a whimsical polychromatic palette that lends a particular sense of life and movement in the primitivist motifs. To the mention of primitivism, admirers of the craft and keen eyes may note both characters and small-scale figural motifs throughout the field, especially tribal representations of birds and other animals in the most archaic fashion. It’s an especially interesting find to see these elements in tandem with those of the border, populated with geometric rosettes and architectural elements of an almost Bessarabian and country sensibilities. It’s every bit an intriguing find as much as a fabulous work of rustic, old-world charm, worthy of vast applications and equally suitable in size and sensibility to wall-hanging projects, too.
