| Gorgeous Antique Temple Tapestry in Deep Purple |
This truly rare example of Japanese textile design is a rich work of art. Excellent for display in your home, this piece will be a crowning jewel in your collection!
At nearly one hundred years old, this piece was used as a tapestry inside the temple's walls. Its regal purple surface is patterned with a stunning damask design, rich with arabesque and geometric motifs. The white symbols indicate the name of the family that commissioned this piece, and the characters on either side tell the date it was made for the temple.
Please remember to be careful when handling the delicate fabric of this particular piece. |
