River Blooms

This portiere tapestry
The portiere style originated as a type of textile to hang over a doorway. It originated from Eastern countries and, although it's not known when it was introduced into Europe, it is believed to be at least 1500 years ago. The label "portiere" is a truncation of rideau de porte, French for "door curtain".

Over time the style has developed into a more elaborate form and is now used in a variety of ways. This includes wall tapestries, where the portiere style is taken to mean any long narrow wall textile. It is used in a number of different tapestry designs and has evolved into an impressive and striking style of its own.

The detailed landscape transfers well to wall tapestries with the warm, natural colors really coming alive particularly with the detailed foliage.

This tapestry is lined and has a tunnel for ease of hanging.
