Measuring 96 × 31 inches, this long rectangular tapestry combines delicate botanical ornamentation, classical decorative elements, and a sophisticated pastel palette, creating a graceful example of French-inspired decorative textile artistry.
The design features two distinctive floral arrangements positioned along the length of the tapestry. The upper composition displays a tilted decorative basket overflowing with roses, delicate blossoms, and trailing greenery, accented by flowing pink ribbons. The lower section presents a larger upright flower basket surrounded by abundant roses, daisy-like flowers, leafy branches, and botanical sprays. These floral arrangements are enclosed within a refined decorative framework of garlands, scrolling foliage, and geometric corner ornaments, giving the tapestry an elegant architectural structure.
The background displays beautiful variations of golden yellow, champagne, honey beige, and warm ivory, complemented by flowers in blush pink, dusty rose, pale lavender, cream, and soft mauve. Delicate foliage in sage green, muted olive, and pale blue-green provides subtle contrast against the warm golden field.
The wool and cotton construction gives the tapestry a textured woven surface that enhances the intricate floral details. Its elongated proportions make it particularly suitable for display in hallways, staircases, narrow wall spaces, or above furniture. The tapestry is fitted with adhesive-backed Velcro hanging strips, providing a practical option for wall installation. See less
