Lot 157
Peter Collingwood (1922-2008), a hand-woven wool on linen pile rug `Scarlet runner`, 1964, double-corduroy weave in a mix of reds, bright pink and orange, originally for the New Zealand House carpet, 420cm x 68cm, with a catalogue of his retrospective exhibition. Provenance: Professor Ann Sutton, MBE, who, in 1964, swapped a piece of her own work with Collingwood for the present lot. It has never been used by Ann Sutton as a floor rug, so has no wear at all. It once covered a long seat, but hardly used and not in the sun. This runner was originally woven as one of ten which would be sewn together to make a carpet, commissioned for the Assistant High Commissioner`s office in New Zealand House, but was found to be 2" too short, so another strip had to be woven. This finished carpet was the largest he made in the double-corduroy technique. It featured in his retrospective exhibition in The Minories, Colchester. Visit www.dnfa.com for condition reports.

Condition - No chips, cracks or restoration, two minor paint scuffs. [Several sources have been suggested for the inspiration of this abstract pattern combining linear geometric elements and freehand motifs in the Art Deco style. A1920 René Buthaud earthenware vase includes the horizontal wavy lines, and a design for a carpet by Eric Bagge includes several similar elements.
