Hand knotted in high quality wool, the lozenges bare a distinct resemblance to the protective eye motif, complementing the meaningful red colourways and accented by bold black and vibrant turquoise blues. Additionally unique to this piece are the Minimalist x symbols between the neatly woven geometric chains, often symbolizing men to compliment the lozenge’s representation of women. See less
