The floral scroll and bird border seamlessly blends into the pictorial scene without taking away from the majestic style. An outer border composed of a zigzag chevron add interest and a pop of colour. French Aubusson Verdure Tapestries are a type of tapestry art originating from Aubusson, a town in central France known for its long-standing tradition of tapestry weaving. Verdure refers to the lush greenery and foliage depicted in these tapestries. These intricate textiles typically showcase pastoral scenes, landscapes, or forest settings, often featuring trees, animals, and birds. The designs are characterized by their detailed botanical elements and vibrant colors, creating a sense of natural beauty and tranquility. Aubusson Verdure Tapestries have been highly regarded for their craftsmanship and artistic value since the 17th century. Good condition Retail prices may vary
