Contemporary Blanket in 100% Italian Wool from Alpago

About the Item

The Alpagota is an indigenous Italian sheep with a thick and wavy coat, with a color that varies from the prevalent yellow to brownish. The design of the blanket and its particular pattern have a charming story connected to the past and ancient gestures. Thanks to its characteristics, the Alpago sheep has a triple productive attitude: meat, wool, but also milk. For counting the quantity of milk, hazelnut sticks were engraved on roman numbers corresponding to the kilos of milk. The stick, called Tessera, was then divided into two: one part remained with the owner while the other with the one who kept the accounts. Like the Tessera, our blanket is made up of two parts, the two together showing the signs used for counting the milk. -100% Italian wool from Alpago -Natural color wool, no dyed process applied on fabric -Each blanket is made of single wool parts stitched together -Fully handmade stitches.

    The board of a table is much more than a mere support: it is a line that divides two worlds. On its upper part certain codes are maintained, there are prescribed ways and conventions. Above that level reigns the protocol, the scopic, the customs and courtesies. Everything changes under the table. There appear the flirtations, the furtive gestures, the hidden. In this invisible field dominate the unseen signals and the secret codes, the tactile ones. Also the pets rest covered by an architecture to their measure and, inadvertently, doze. Under that plane, the feet are confused and mixed in a small choreography, where the human and artificial legs...
