A verdure tapestry is a type of woven wall hanging originating from Europe, particularly Flanders and France, characterised by a prominent landscape motif featuring trees, foliage, and occasionally animals.

Traditional tapestries from this period were typically hand-woven on low-warp or high-warp looms using wool, silk, and occasionally metallic threads such as gilt or silver-wrapped yarn for highlights.

Authentication involves examining the hand-woven structure, fibre ageing, natural dye variations, and selvedge edges, alongside consulting textile historians to verify weave techniques consistent with historical workshops.

An antique tapestry can be mounted on a concealed batten system or displayed using a specialized hanging sleeve to distribute the weight evenly, serving as a textured focal point against neutral walls.

To preserve historic textiles, keep them away from direct sunlight, maintain stable indoor humidity levels, and gently vacuum them using low suction through a protective mesh screen.
