About the Item

A rare and exquisite fragment of 17th-century Florentine textile, showcasing the opulence of the Italian Baroque period. This piece features rich crimson velvet motifs—possibly silk pile—handwoven on a golden-toned silk ground. The design is a refined interplay of stylized florals and scrolling acanthus leaves, reflecting the grandeur of Florentine court textiles. Likely used for ecclesiastical vestments, ceremonial garments, or aristocratic interior drapery. This antique textile embodies centuries-old craftsmanship and would appeal to collectors of historical fabrics, fashion historians, or designers seeking authentic inspiration.
