About the Item
A rare Flemish tapestry pillow incorporating a genuine 17th century handwoven wool fragment, originating from Flanders during the Baroque era. The tapestry depicts a stylized figural form, likely allegorical or mythological in nature, rendered with expressive linework and subtle shading. The palette consists of time-softened golds, earth tones, and restrained teal highlights, typical of early Flemish weaving traditions.
The textile exhibits extensive age-related character, including visible wear, areas of thinning, and historical restoration consistent with its age and original function as a wall hanging. These details attest to the authenticity of the piece and reflect centuries of use and preservation. The fragment has been thoughtfully repurposed into a pillow with a linen backing and feather insert, allowing it to be displayed and enjoyed in a contemporary interior.
This pillow serves as both a decorative object and a collectible artifact, offering a tangible connection to 17th century European textile artistry. Suitable for refined interiors, private collections, or as a distinctive accent within curated antique and modern spaces alike.
