Floral-patterned Tapestry, 18th Century
- Floral-patterned tapestry, 18th-century work.
- This woven piece features a charming, symmetrical design of floral motifs with numerous touches of red.

The design is framed by a border featuring geometric diamond motifs in beige and dark blue.
- In good condition; the tapestry is lined and features a hanging system with rings sewn onto the braid on the reverse side.
