Antique French Tapestry Rug, Country Of Origin: France, Circa Date: 1900 — Embroidered in crisp and well-defined colors, this tapestry is meant to convey a luxurious scene. The rich, black border is filled with vibrantly hued roses, peonies, tulips and poppies, adding to the agrarian charm present throughout the piece. Within the borders is a playful domestic scene.
