17th Century Flemish Tapestry Pillow CHERUB

About the Item

A bespoke hand made pillow Incorporating early textiles 17th Century Flemish (Brussels) Tapestry Panel Woven in naturally dyed wools and silks Depicting a full length Cherub and an exotic bird in flight. Finished with early 18th century fawn silk tassel fringe and metallic braid The gold Pomegranate brocaded fabric backing is later Lovely time worn appeal with general signs of wear commensurate with immense and and use Please study photographs as they do form a very important part of the description SIZE 17 inches x 17 inches (43cm x 43cm) PLEASE NOTE On a genuine 17th century tapestry we would of course expect to see evidence confirming its 350 years of use, such as loose missing threads, areas of general wear, perhaps areas of re weaving / restoration, lines of separation within the weaving, sometimes areas of sun fading and brittle threads. All quite normal for age and type S534 FOOTNOTE All my pillows are hand made by myself incorporating wherever possible rare early textiles I travel extensively throughout Europe to locate beautiful hard to find textiles , some of which can be up to 400 years old and of course will show evidence of this immense age. Rarely totally symmetrical , with perfectly straight lines, without wear ,evenness in colour etc I work as best I can to retain all of this inherent quirkiness to obtain a gently time worn faded grandeur appeal that only be achieved over centuries of use an achieve Your pillow will be perfectly imperfect.
