CIRCA: Early 1900’s
A Tibetan khagangma, or seating carpet, made using various shades of natural indigo (blue) dye set against an off-white undyed wool background. The main field features a floral mandala style roundel with floral displays anchoring each corner. The main outer border is the interlocked swastika design while the inner secondary border is of pearls. Constructed circa the early 1900’s, it is quite tightly woven (for a Tibetan carpet), both the warp and weft are of wool and the size is 70cm x 75cm. It is in good condition.
