Carpet weaving in Moldova


Carpet weaving is an important tradition in Moldovan folk culture.  As you can see from this postcard they are often used to decorate walls and seating as well as placed on the floor.  The patterns used are similar to those used in embroidery, pottery and wood carvings.

  1. Whenever I see the different carpet designs, I can't help but stare in wonder of how amazingly creative are the minds who made them!
