Mid-19th Century Four-Color American Jacquard Coverlet
Located in Barrington, IL
An exceptional example of 19th-century American textile artistry, this signed four-color Jacquard coverlet originates from Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, and is dated 1859. Featuring a striking palette of navy blue, red, ivory, and pale green, the piece is intricately woven with fine detail and craftsmanship. The coverlet is inscribed “Michael Umbarger, Middle Paxton Township Da. Co. 1859 Amos Killinger,” honoring both the recipient and the weaver — a common yet meaningful tradition made possible by the Jacquard loom, which allowed personalization through the intricate weaving process.
Woven by hand, this textile exemplifies the popularity and artistry of American coverlets in the mid-1800s, prized both for their functional warmth and decorative value. Whether draped over a bed, displayed as a wall hanging, or styled in a heritage-rich interior, this coverlet brings a unique narrative and historic charm to any refined setting.
Perfect for collectors, designers, and decorators seeking rare and storied textiles to elevate traditional or eclectic interiors.

19th Century Persian Shahsavan Mafrash Tribal Cargo Bag Panel
Located in Barrington, IL
An exceptional 19th-century Persian Shahsavan Mafrash, this rare and collectible tribal cargo bag panel showcases the artistry and utility of nomadic craftsmanship.

A true connoisseur’s find, this work is a testament to the enduring beauty of Persian tribal weaving and an extraordinary decorative statement for sophisticated interiors.

Shop Vintage Tapestries on 1stDibs
Whether you hang them behind your bed as a dazzling alternative to a headboard or over the sofa as a large-scale focal point in the living room, vintage tapestries can introduce an array of textures and colors to any space in your home.
Woven wall hangings haven’t consistently enjoyed the popularity or earned the highbrow status that other types of wall decorations have over the years, at least not since the 1970s, which was somewhat of a heyday for tapestries. Today, however, these tactile works of art are seeing a renaissance, as modern weavers are forging new paths in the medium while the demand for antique and vintage tapestries continues to grow.
“We are drawn to texture in environments, and we see tapestries as a subtle layer of soft ornament,” says Lauren Larson of the New York design duo Material Lust. Indeed, and a lot of opportunity comes along when decorating with this distinctive brand of soft ornament.
Think of wall hangings as paintings created by hand with fabric instead of oil or watercolors. If you’re not simply securing your treasure to a wall with nails, pushpins or Velcro, tapestries can be stretched over a frame, used to create a canopy in a cozy living-room corner, hung from a rod or placed inside a shadowbox. And because this kind of textile art is hundreds of years old, options abound with respect to subjects and designs.
For richly detailed depictions of landscapes and garden scenes, look to antique Chinese tapestries and Japanese tapestries. Aubusson tapestries are ornate wall hangings manufactured in central France that are also characterized by romantic portrayals of nature. For weavers of mid-century modern tapestries, as well as those working in textile arts today, the styles and subject matter are too numerous to mention, with artists exploring experimental shapes, bold colors and provocative abstract designs.
Antique, new and vintage tapestries can make a room feel warm and welcoming — find yours on 1stDibs now.
