It features an incredibly dense, museum-quality weave of 66 threads per square inch, far exceeding standard mid-century textiles. Woven entirely by hand from premium hand-spun wool, the central stepped medallion and crisp serrated borders showcase sharp geometric symmetry, achievable only by a master weaver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"430\" data-end=\"758\"\u003eIt features a stark, high-contrast palette of striking “Ganado Red” and deep charcoal black set against a crisp, luminous off-white field.
