About MeLinen, warp faced weave wall hanging in shades of grey, cream, green and orange. Abstract design suspended in three sections from a brass rod. The sections join together to create the open belly of a vessel. The whole creates an interpretation of a Greek vase or amphora. Twisted sisal rope forms large 'handles' on either side of the vessel wall and smaller 'handles' in inner edge on outside vertical straps.Archie Brennan
