Age | Circa 1920 |
SOLD | Info | Bessarabian kilims, made to the north of the Black Sea in current day Moldova, were influenced by French Aubusson carpets and made for the Russian market. However, unlike their sophisticated western European counterparts, they are charmingly naive and 'folky' in design. |
