"AUBUSSON" INSPIRED NEEDLEPOINT RUG - VERY HANDY SIZE</em></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100%">
The second of three beautiful, needlepoint rugs, this one is
3x5. The 4' x 6' rug has already sold!<P> The artisan was at
the top of his/her artistic and
manual craft. Every stitch is exactly the same as all the
others - and the illusion is that of one continuous canvas.
<p> A look at the reverse side shows neat and highly
controlled stitches.
Note how neatly the canvas is rolled under and hand
stitched to give added strength to the edges of the rug. <p>
This rug is in excellent condition. Every stitch is in tact, with
no repairs whatsoever.
<p> Do not pass up this
opportunity to own a very special rug. PLEASE SEE ONE
OTHER, VERY SIMILAR NEEDLEPOINT RUG. IT MEASURES 2'x 3'
and will appear for auction soon. Both rugs use the same muted
palate of colors, yet each
design is subtly different.
