About the Item
Thomas Gleb, pseudonym of Yehouda Chaim Kalman (1912-1991) was a French painter, sculptor and textile artist of Polish origin.
The "pafilage" technique has been invented by Gleb himself who tears the paper into different parts and recomposes them in a collage technique.
This highly manual process makes every "pafilage" even if part of a series of multiples a unique piece.
Thomas Gleb (1912-1991)

Minimalist Woolen Namad Felt, 19th Century – Afghanistan
Located in Renens, CH
For millennia, Central Asian nomads relied on age-old designs. Felt, prized for its insulation and portability, featured prominently in their lives until its decline a few decades ago.
Essential within yurts, it often served as protective coverings for entrances. Originating from Sistan, an isolated area straddling Iran and Afghanistan, Namad felts have endured unchanged, adorned with ancient symbols. Their remarkable modernity stems from their isolation from urban decorative influences, preserving their remote motifs through the ages.
The felts we have on offer originate from a collection that was acquired at Altai Gallery in Milan, a high-end gallery specialized in antique rugs and tapestries.
Origination: Afghanistan, end 1900s. Provenance: Altai Gallery Milano. Certificate provided.
Condition: Good, considering age. Reinforcing repairs have been made over the years on the underside. Please note that the felt wool rug...
