Subtle touches of old gold and a hint of burgundy along the border add depth and character. The colors have aged gracefully into a rich earthy tone that only centuries old Flemish textiles achieve.

The handwoven wool surface shows the classic movement and shading of early Brussels workshops with sculptural leaves and softly modeled forms. Natural patina and gentle wear throughout the tapestry reflect its age and authenticity. The back is finished in a clean neutral linen to create a refined contrast against the richly toned front.

This pillow offers an elegant Old World presence and pairs beautifully with both traditional and contemporary interiors. A sophisticated accent for collectors and designers who value true historic textiles. See less
