About: Beautifully bold and moody character piece right here. This antique village rug was woven with intent - directional elements with the arrows on each side could have stood for connection, direction, prosperity, and/or bridging two areas/spaces/rooms. OR was this symbolic of balance, with the arrows acting as two opposing forces with the center being the focal point. These weavers were humans that experienced what we feel today, the need for balance, the search for meaning, and even the need to express and connect with others - through art as the creator and/or the viewer. That is why this piece is significant to me because although we will never know the intent behind this design, we know that there was one. So, how you implement this in your space and life adds yet another beautiful layer to the significance of this piece. That thought, in my opinion, is how you should view and use all art, not just rugs. The genuine age-related wear to this piece is another great example of a story, and the rich red, slate-icey blue in combination with the deeper inky blue/black and camels, beige, salmon, greens and more adds some more life and charm to an already powerful and significant design! We love this rug!
