The purpose of this blog is to popularize Bulgarian embroidery and textile crafts. Weaving is amongst the oldest crafts in the world. For centuries, Bulgarian women have woven textiles for garments, home decoration and bedding. The colors and geometrical forms in the Bulgarian textiles have established themselves throughout the centuries and are carriers of the Bulgarian culture uniting the nation to this day. Take a look at this wonderful palette of colors and shapes. If you wish to have any of the works shown here, contact us at: kareta.bulgaria@yahoo.com

A traditional hand-woven woolen carpet from South-Western Bulgaria. This authentic carpet is 100% wool and due to the thickness of the natural threads, it provides excellent thermo- and sound-isolation. It regulates the moisture in the room and provides comfort to the feet, while walking on it. The yarn has been colored with traditional ancient techniques which make the colors last for several centuries. Nothing compares to the traditional hand-woven textiles. They are priceless among the modern machine-made products. This carpet could be a wonderful addition to the interior of your home or cottage.
100% Wool 3m x 78cm Price: 300 € (shipping included) (Three carpets in stock)
