This Turkish embroidered silk tapestry has been around for ahwhile, since the 1920’s. Doesn’t it look so much like the Chelsea Editions fabric (see the pillow shown below)? Especially their latest line of fabric, which is selling for $500 or more per yard. But the price is fitting as these are fabrics meant to age and be appreciated over many generations.
There is such a place in my heart for beautiful textiles.
