FAQs

Epirus textiles originate from Northern Greece, particularly Ioannina, which was a major embroidery centre during the Ottoman era. These hand-stitched textiles are recognised for their dense silk threads and motifs depicting birds, vessels, and stylized foliage.

Traditional Epirus embroideries were created using fine silk or wool threads worked onto hand-woven linen or cotton grounds. Dyes were derived from natural vegetable sources to create rich shades of crimson, indigo, and yellow.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-worked darning or cross-stitches on hand-loomed linen grounds, showing minor irregularities typical of artisan work. Key motifs include confronting peacocks, floral sprigs, and central urns, with colour fading consistent with age.

A mounted textile fragment can be framed under non-reflective glass and hung within a gallery wall or positioned above a console table. The organic texture and historical motifs provide a contrasting focal point against clean modern walls.

Position the textile away from direct sunlight, heating vents, and high humidity to prevent fibre breakdown and thread fading. Avoid surface cleaning with water or domestic detergents, consulting a professional conservator for stabilization if required.
