TIL - I thought of this as a Persian tradition. Apparently the idea of a deliberate flaw in a woven work features in both cultures.
very cool to know.. it may have been a pretty common practice at one time..
Japanese do this too especially in pottery, it seems like a very old form of artisanry
oohh, thank you for sharing that.. yes, it seems to belong to the very beginning of artistry itself..
I'm pretty sure Islamic art does a similar thing too, to highlight humanity's imperfection or something.
