The intricate weaving creates a textural, warm feel, capturing the lively spirit of the era. The piece is housed in its original, beautiful giltwood frame, which features detailed fluting and corner rosettes.
The frame, while structurally sound and strong, shows some signs of its age with minor cracking in the frame, which adds to its authentic antique character.

There are some minor pulls in the threads, as expected from a piece of this vintage, and it will need a professional cleaning to restore its full vibrancy. This work has not been modified or restored and remains a genuine antique find. The back of the piece shows its original construction, with the tapestry hand-tacked to the stretcher bars. This piece is a perfect statement piece for a living room, dining area, or study, bringing a touch of classic French elegance to any space. See less
