Wall Tapestry – A Fresh Breath in Time
by Barbara Tobiasz

In the early beginnings tapestries were used to shield people from the cold, but today tapestries can warm people’s hearts just from their appearance and beauty.

It wasn’t long before tapestries were also used as a status symbol in one’s home. Kings and Nobles were one of the first to display them in their homes. These were also portable and they could take them place to place.

Tapestries were also used to detail and explain biblical stories. They were also used to bring out one’s imagination and humor. In our modern society we use these qualities and many more for expression and decoration.

Original tapestries that you see in various museums were hand woven and took many months of hard work and labor. They used expensive materials to create this work of art.

Some of the materials that were used were fine silk, wool and gold and silver threads for accents.

Many of the tapestries that we hang on our walls are copies of original artwork. They are also not hand woven, but made by machines. These take half the time to produce and we can purchase these at realistic prices.

You can trace tapestry history all the way back to ancient Greece and ending up with our modern versions.

What this work of art accomplishes is to bring a breath of fresh air to any room. It creates charm and character to your empty walls. It also will enhance any room with exquisite beauty.

There are so many different and unique tapestries present in today’s market. I am certain there is a fit for everyone’s circumstance and decor.

Viewing a wall tapestry can calm ones nerves after a hectic day.

My advice is if you have any open space why not fill it with a bit of history...
