These chic tassels have an original filigree design wrapped around the silver motif, incorporating a handcrafted soft geometric flower design.
Used as drapery ties to make a spectacular window treatment or as decorative home accents in search of Moroccan décor inspiration, these artisan made tassels are both original and elegant.
The motif has a filigree design wrapped around it with a soft flower pattern echoing Islamic geometrics. These curtain tie holdbacks are handmade by a master metalsmith, who uses basic tools combined with years of skill. These are then combined with intricate tassel fringes which are made using the art of passementerie (the art of threads) by a second craftsman using nothing more than a large needle, a pair of hands, fingers, toes and scissors.
The results are luxurious and sumptuous curtain ties and tassels which bely the low environmental impact and basic tools of their artisan production.
These curtain ties are sold in pairs and are classed as size small within our collection, although they are bigger than most other tassels available on the market.
