About the Item
Group of Three French Tapestry Pillows with Botanical and Bird Motifs
France, Tapestry panels: circa 1920–1950; Pillows: Mid-20th Century
A coordinated trio of decorative pillows crafted from early 20th-century French tapestry panels, each intricately woven with naturalistic scenes featuring exotic birds, flowering vines, and foliage in warm ochre, crimson, and verdant green tones. Two depict golden pheasants amid leafy undergrowth; the third shows scrolling botanical elements with berries. The pillows are trimmed with multicolor tassel fringe and backed in matching golden velvet.
The tapestry components date from the 1920s–1950s and were likely fashioned into pillows in the mid-20th century by a European decorator or atelier. The refined execution and harmonious colorway are consistent with pieces customized by leading design houses such as Maison Jansen or retailed through Linni Sisters Inc., known for transforming historic textiles into bespoke furnishings for discerning clients.

Each approximately 19 in. square
Condition:
Good. Minor surface wear and spotting; one pillow with a small burn hole to the velvet back (see photos). Presents beautifully overall.
