This captivating hand-woven mohair tapestry titled 'Reflection in Pond' is a stunning example of traditional tribal art from the Kingdom of Lesotho, Africa - one of the most distinctive and internationally admired hand-weaving traditions in sub-Saharan Africa. Crafted from fine hand-spun mohair - the extraordinarily soft and lustrous fiber of the Angora goat, bred in the highlands of Lesotho with a quality that rivals Cashmere - the tapestry depicts a peaceful pond scene with its reflection in a palette of quiet natural beauty.

Lesotho mohair tapestries are collected worldwide for their unique combination of exceptional material quality, distinctive folk art character, and the warmth and tactile richness that only genuine hand-woven mohair can achieve. The Kingdom of Lesotho produces some of the finest mohair in the world, and the country's tapestry weavers have developed a tradition that honors that extraordinary material with the artistry it deserves.
