Handwoven in wool and originating from Portugal circa 1960-1969, this 4x4 signed vintage tapestry featuring romantic pictorial patterns is a bold addition to our accessories collection. On the design: Connoisseurs may admire this exquisite 20th-century Portuguese tapestry, formerly of the renowned Teppich Engelhardt collection, masterfully blending classical motifs with mid-century aesthetics.
