Hand Made Pillow
Incorporating Early 17th Century Flemish tapestry panel worked in naturally dyed wools and silks
Lovely gently time worn /aged appeal to this pillow. Perfect for antique interiors, or adding that finishing touch to a contemporary chair
The rare tapestry panel is 350 years old and is in a time worn Antique condition with general signs of wear commensurate with age and use.
SIZE 14 inches x 12 inches (36cm x 30cm)
Please study photographs as they do form part of the description, also please ready statement below as to what may be expected regarding condition of these rare and ancient textiles as this may not be acceptable to you
we would of course expect to see evidence confirming its 350 years of use, such as loose missing threads, areas of general wear, perhaps areas of re weaving / restoration, lines of separation within the weaving, sometimes areas of sun fading and brittle threads. All quite normal for great age and type

FOOTNOTE All my pillows are hand made by myself incorporating wherever possible rare early textiles
I travel extensively throughout Europe to locate beautiful hard to find textiles , some of which can be up to 400 years old and of course will show evidence of this immense age
Rarely totally symmetrical , with perfectly straight lines, without wear ,evenness in colour etc
I work as best I can to retain all of this inherent quirkiness to obtain a gently time worn faded grandeur appeal that only be achieved over centuries of use
Your pillow will be perfectly imperfect.
