Original price was: 45 €.Current price is: 23 €.

SKU: et203

This delicately embroidered, oval-shaped antique tapestry depicts a lady dressed in rococo fashion, wearing a flower-trimmed bonnet and a pale blue gown. The tiny, painstaking stitches capture every fold of the fabric and every detail of the rose bouquet in her hand, a clear sign of the embroidery's age and quality. An oval bronze frame with a scrolling vine motif surrounds the composition, echoing the kind of piece you'd expect in an 18th- or 19th-century interior. The lady's poised, upright posture and her hand resting on the chair back reflect the portrait conventions of her time. This antique tapestry is a genuine rarity for anyone who loves textile art or the rococo style — and thanks to its modest size, it fits just as easily into a small gap on a gallery wall of other period pieces.
