An Aubusson verdure tapestry is a traditional French woven textile originating from the town of Aubusson, characterised by its detailed rendering of natural landscapes, forest foliage, and botanical motifs.

These pieces were traditionally hand-woven using natural wool and silk threads over strong warp fibres, often finished with textile backings and braided passementerie or fringe edging.

Authentic examples exhibit hand-woven textile construction with subtle natural variations, characteristic age-related colour softening, hand-stitched seams, and dense wool weaving on the face.

Place tapestry cushions on modern or classic upholstered furniture to introduce rich textural contrast, earthy green tones, and a historical element to contemporary living spaces.

Lightly brush or vacuum using low suction with a soft attachment, keep away from direct sunlight to prevent fibre fading, and seek professional conservation advice for specialized cleaning.
