About the Item
Handwoven in Aubusson, France in the 19th Century, this lovely silk and wool piece was originally the setback of a loveseat. It measures 2 x 5.3 ft. It is in pristine condition and can be hung on the wall or used to upholster a headboard.
Aubusson, a town on the river Creuse in central France, became a center of tapestry manufacturing in the 17th and 18th centuries during the reigns of Louis XIV and Louis XV. Aubusson became the source for the aristocracy, hence the typically monumental sizes of Aubusson rugs and tapestries. Employing a method known as "warping" and executed on a low horizontal loom, the weavers of Aubusson were able to create an illusion of depth in their works. Aubusson textiles are also usually identified by their stylized framing motifs and neoclassical themes.
Please note that this piece is unlined.
