impressive museum worthy pillow displays absolutely beautifully.

Please read below what may be expected re_ condition of these rare and ancient textiles as this may not be acceptable to you

LAYAWAY AVAILABLE

PLEASE NOTE On a genuine ancient tapestry panel 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 restoration/ patching , sometimes areas of sun fading and brittle threads. All quite normal for great age and type

S#4096

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.
