Afghan Throw
c. 1938
Step into a vibrant garden of woven textures with this fascinating 1938 design study by Erwin Stenzel. The piece presents six distinct, lushly colored panels—ranging from swirling blue and white vines to bold red and green foliage—mounted together like a botanical mood board. Created around 1938, this collection of 'Afghan Throw' samples showcases the intricate craftsmanship and bold, stylized floral aesthetics popular in textile design of the era. It’s a beautiful glimpse into the meticulous planning that goes into creating the cozy, patterned throws we love to wrap up in!
