FAQs

Verdure tapestries are handwoven wall hangings featuring lush green botanical landscapes, trees, and wildlife, originating predominantly from the French weaving centre of Aubusson in the 16th to 18th centuries.

These textiles were typically handwoven on low-warp looms using natural wool yarns for the structural warp and weft, often incorporating silk threads to highlight detailed flora, fauna, and water elements.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-spun wool fibres, natural dye variations such as indigo and madder, characteristic back-weaving threads, and subtle oxidisation consistent with centuries of age.

Mounting these panels on neutral plaster walls or above structured furniture creates a striking textural contrast, grounding contemporary rooms with rich historic tones and botanical motifs.

To preserve textile integrity, hang tapestries using hook-and-loop fasteners or padded slats to distribute weight evenly, keep them away from direct sunlight, and consult professional conservators for cleaning.
