Xalapa Anthropology Museum: Friezes
What comes to mind? I had never heard of the term until I joined the Wear-Dated carpet fiber group. I had to have someone [actually a couple of someones] show me what it meant. Frieze styled carpet is popular around the country. In addition to being more contemporary in feel, it’s considered a practical choice for active households. Especially if the specific style includes berber flecks or barber pole accent yarns [i.e., two different colors of yarn twisted together like a barber pole] which can help mask or camouflage stains.
