About the Item
A rare 17th century Flemish tapestry pillow constructed from an original Baroque era wool tapestry fragment, woven in Flanders during a period renowned for its exceptional textile production. The composition displays abstracted foliate and organic forms rendered in a restrained palette of olive, ochre, brown, and natural wool tones, characteristic of early Flemish decorative weaving.
The tapestry surface retains significant historic character, including areas of wear, abrash, and localized thinning resulting from age and use over more than three centuries. These elements are consistent with authentic period textiles and contribute to the visual depth and scholarly integrity of the piece. The fragment has been professionally mounted with a linen backing to preserve the antique textile while allowing for functional display.
This pillow represents a compelling example of early European tapestry work repurposed into a contemporary decorative form, suitable for collectors, designers, and interiors seeking genuine historical material with layered patina and provenance.
