Description

I can confirm it is a high-quality machine-woven piece from the 20th century from Belgium is what I was told when I bought it. No makers mark that I can see. I don't want to tear brown backing completely off to try to find it because it helps keep the tapestry shape. Because of that, the weave is incredibly tight, heavy, and durable, so it holds its shape beautifully on the wall without sagging over time. Just to give you some context on the broader market for a statement piece of this size, if it were a modern hand-woven reproduction, it would easily set a buyer back around $2,000 to $5,000. And if you were looking at a true, hand-woven period antique from the 17th or 18th century, those are museum-level investment pieces that routinely clear anywhere from $10,000 to $40,000+ at specialized galleries. That's why the machine-woven pieces from the last century are so heavily sought after by decorators—they deliver that massive, room-anchoring presence and the exact old-world European estate look perfectly, but in a piece that's built for modern display and at a fraction of the cost!
