FAQs

Antique silk and velvet panels from the 19th century often incorporate intricate needlework, metallised threads, and pictorial motifs used in ecclesiastical vestments, home furnishings, or wall hangings.

These panels typically feature silk velvet foundations, satin appliques, hand-spun metal threads (such as gilt or silver wire), and fine silk embroidery floss for detailed stitching.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-woven velvet grounds, natural silk yarns showing age-appropriate oxidisation on metal threads, and hand-stitched assemblage rather than modern machine backing.

Framing the panel behind conservation-grade UV glass or mounting it professionally on a stretched linen backing allows it to serve as a textured focal point on a neutral wall.

Preservation requires keeping the textile out of direct sunlight to prevent fading, avoiding chemical cleaners, and maintaining stable humidity levels to protect delicate natural fibres.
