FAQs

French verdure tapestries gained immense popularity during the 17th and 18th centuries, featuring lush woodland scenes, foliage, and pastoral figures. They were traditionally used in manor houses and chateaux to provide insulation and decorative elegance.

Antique tapestries are typically constructed using wool, silk, and occasionally metallic threads like gold or silver. They are hand-woven on high-warp or low-warp looms, a painstaking process requiring immense skill and months or years to complete.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the fibre content, natural dyes, weave tightness, and the reverse side, which should show consistent hand-knotting or weave structure matching the front. Edges often reveal hand-finishing, and stylistic motifs align with historical periods.

A large tapestry serves as an impactful focal point, replacing traditional framed art above a sofa or along a grand hallway. Pairing it with minimalist modern furniture creates a balanced contrast that highlights the textiles rich texture and history.

Antique textiles should be kept out of direct sunlight to prevent fading and degradation of natural fibres. They require gentle vacuuming with a mesh screen covering the nozzle and should be professionally cleaned only by specialists in historic textiles.
