Vloerkleed met op het middenveld een rasterpatroon met bladwerk 1930

This carpet was made by Koninklijke Kinheim, though when is unknown. The muted palette and intricate patterns feel very handmade. You can almost see the hours of labor, the careful knotting and weaving, like the artist is making a painting with thread. Up close, the texture is so inviting, those tiny knots creating a tactile surface that begs to be touched. The grid of leaf-like shapes in the central field feels both orderly and organic, like a garden seen through a screen. Each motif is slightly different, a testament to the hand's imperfection. It reminds me a little bit of Anni Albers’ weaving experiments at the Bauhaus. Both artists share a fascination with the grid and the possibilities of repetition, exploring the boundary between craft and art. This carpet invites contemplation. It’s a reminder that beauty can be found in the everyday, in the things we walk on, and that art is an ongoing conversation across time and materials.
