The front panel displays layered botanical forms in muted greens, antique golds, soft rose, and earthy browns, woven with remarkable depth and painterly movement typical of Flemish Baroque textiles.

Originally part of a larger wall tapestry, this fragment has been thoughtfully preserved and transformed into a decorative pillow, allowing its history and craftsmanship to live on in a contemporary interior. The surface shows areas of wear, thinning, and gentle fading that speak to centuries of age and use, lending the piece an unmistakable sense of authenticity and soul.

Finished with a neutral linen backing and a plush insert, this pillow works beautifully as an accent on a sofa, daybed, or layered among other antique textiles. Its elongated bolster shape makes it especially versatile, offering both visual interest and functional comfort. A striking addition for collectors and designers seeking genuine European antiques with character and presence. See less
