Jaf Chuval, second half 19th century
Measurements: 97cm x 109cm
56 Knots per inch
Price: £420
Here is an unusual Jaf piece with two matching panels picked out in different colours containing a cruciform design surrounded by floral motifs. The outer border is typical of Jaf pieces, I very much like the pale yellow main border that immediately frames the field. The elem end with it’s large stars has some wear but retains it’s beauty. A really interesting piece with lovely dyes.
Condition:
Quite a lot of wear especially to the elem end. There is some repair most noticeably a moderately sized hole repair that crosses both borders.
