We Make Carpets Nazmiyal

Artists “We Make Carpets”

In the past, creating a carpet was a painstaking and exceedingly slow process. Some of the masterpieces that we have today took teams of weavers years to create. They have a quality that allows them to last for centuries if they are properly taken care of and preserved. Now, you can find thousands of mass-produced carpets at exceptionally cheap prices. However, something is missing. A hand-knotted rug was carefully crafted by the artisan. They poured their heart and soul into its creation. This is something that a machine made carpet can never reproduce, and the message that We Make Carpets wants to say to the world.

In one of his most famous works, he used pieces inspired by 17th and 16th century Transylvanian rugs to cover the Palazzo Grassi. This 2013 exhibition was an imaginative use of carpets as a medium, but if we look beyond the surface, we might be able to gain insights into antique rugs as a medium of self-expression that applies today.

Trinitarias Carpet – The Mystery Unfolds

The issue of forgery is always a question when it comes to antiquities of all types. History is full of people being duped by some complex and quite realistic looking forgeries.

As it turned out, this piece, along with much of the collection, was not actually silver but was aluminum alloy.
