Japanese Woven Wool Textile in Greens and Blues eskimo Salish weavers are well knownMid to late 20th century Japanese, 14x28 (with an additional 2" of fringe on each end), and 100% wool, this beautiful woven textile would be stunning as a runner on the dining table (how about underneath a huge platter of colorful roasted root vegetables?), or spread across the surface of a mid century credenza. I cant think of a better color scheme, and the off center pattern of what I assume are water lilies turns the whole thing into a waterscape.
