When I earlier this year went to Amsterdam I visited a very interesting shop called Shirdak. Marianne Tuerlings, the owner have a lot of beautiful textiles from the Silk Road and nomadic felts. All of them so amazing. She has just started an online shop.
In another post I will show snapshots from the shop.
I bought some small amulets, probably from Parkistan or Afghanistan, made in beads. The size is around 7 cm in diameter.
There were a lot of them in the shop, so I chose the one I liked by turning them around, as the backside is so beautiful. At my studio they are hanging showing both sides.

ReplyDeleteHello Hermine,
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way ;-))
It is nice to see the working from the back. They have, for me, a similar feeling of the detentes you showed a few days ago.
ReplyDeleteHi Bethy,
ReplyDeleteYou are right about that. I first thought at that now.
Thank you!
