Moldavian runner rug with stylized flowers and geometric design

Large moldavian runner rug with stylized flowers and geometric design, romanian carpet made by hand about 40-50 years ago. Beautiful colours very well preserved, no major defects, just the signs of the time. It is made on wool, cotton and acrylic, handwoven in the loom, using the traditional techniques of weaving. Found in moldova area, romania. In romania, years ago, every mom handmade for her daughters beautiful carpets and rugs as dot for their weddings. I grown up with this: every winter, at my grandmother' s house, women from the village, neighbors and relatives, spend the evenings and those long winter nights together, working on beautiful wool rugs or other handmade items. Nowadays the art of handcrafting rugs is almost extinguished. Now, we are trying to discover and put into the modern design context these beauties. This is our story.
