Description
- Barbro Nilsson
- "Snäckorna" Carpet
- woven with manufacturer's mark AB MMF BN
- handwoven wool
Condition
Overall in very good original condition. The coloration of the carpet are more saturated and vivid when viewed firsthand than they appear in the catalogue illustration. With some very minor discolorations consistent with gentle use and age. There are some losses to the fringe along the border which were not shown in the catalogue illustration. Please visit sothebys.com for a full image of the carpet or contact the department for additional images of the fringe border. Approximately 10 elements of fringe with only a small portion extending beyond the border. A remarkable work showing great intricacy to the abstract pattern.
