How are the knotted panels arranged?
The hanging is made of diamond-knotted panels set side by side in graduated lengths, so the bottom edge steps up and down rather than running straight. Long fringe hangs from every panel, which balances the geometric diamonds and gives the whole piece a flowing outline.
Is it big enough to be the main piece on a wall?
Yes. At 27 x 31, it is wide enough to anchor the wall above a sofa, a bed headboard or a console table on its own. It reads as a single statement piece rather than an accent, so it does not need other frames around it.
How heavy is it?
It weighs about 1 kg. Give it a little clear space on either side when you hang it, so the full width of the panels and the fringe can be seen.
Will the natural white suit a warm or a cool room?
Natural white is a soft, slightly warm white, so it sits comfortably with wooden furniture, terracotta, jute rugs and earthy cushions. It also lifts a cool grey or blue wall by adding a gentle, creamy texture.
How do I clean a large hanging like this?
Dust it with a soft-bristled brush, or use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment across the panels and fringe. For a stubborn stain, spot clean with a mild detergent solution and let it air dry thoroughly.
Who makes it?
It is knotted by hand at the Indiehaat Macrame Unit under master artisan Brijbala. With so many panels tied individually, small irregularities in knot spacing and fringe length are part of the piece.
