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.

Pair of Antique Tapestry Borders from Flanders, circa 1580
Located in Dallas, TX
A beautiful pair of tapestry fragments, hand-woven in Flanders (now Belgium), circa 1580. At roughly 132 inches (11 feet) long, the fragments were, originally, vertical borders to a very large and brightly colored tapestry. The colors have maintained their vibrancy over the last 400+ years, with deep blue, brown, green, and red accents over a gold and cream background.
Although the fragments do not have identical scenes, it is readily apparent that they originated from the same source. At the top of each fragment is a bearded warrior clad in golden armor with a flowing blue cape and green greaves. A shield rests on the ground, supported by the soldier’s left hand, while his right hand lifts a spear into the air. Towards the center of the textile is a pair of musicians, one strumming a lute, while the other plucks a lyre. At the bottom of each tapestry is a single female figure, well-dressed and sitting on a bench with one arm overhead. The remaining areas have been filled with fruit bouquets, architectural elements, and other figurative representations. A more recent navy blue border surrounds the scenes and the backs have been lined with a mauve colored linen.
