About the Item
Called portière, these antique wall hanging tapestries were handwoven in Aubusson, France in the late 17th Century (c 1680s). They both feature floral and foliage decor in a beige palette. Portière tapestries were traditionally used in French chateaux and palaces in past centuries, they are unique in that they are designed to fill narrow wall spaces. A portière is a hanging curtain placed over a door or over the doorless entrance to a room. Minor reweaving and a restored cut to one panel. They each measure 7.3 ft x 11.5 inches and come with hanging rods for display.
Provenance:
Christie's Auction House, London, United Kingdom in 1999.
