a carpet, "Cavalleria Rustica", knotted pile, ca 320-321,5 x 220-230 cm, signed KE LH, Plitmors Järvsö 1961.
The customer wanted a carpet with a horse since he loved horses. Kerstin Ekengren did not think it suited the carpet's pattern so she designed a detail with a rider on a horse which is seen in a corner of the field. A sewn on label at the back.
Some partly harder wear, slightly dirty, minor stains. The sides have minor fold wear, one damaged corner.
