Antique Silk Embroidered Art Deco Wallhanging with Peacocks and Foliage: C1900 Vietnam
Item Details.
An absolutely stunning silk embroidered wallhanging dating from around 1900/1910.

We have never had a hanging quite like this one which is almost entirely covered in gorgeous embroidery, the peacocks and leaves are beautifully observed and depicted. This is a work of art in the truest sense of the word and deserves to be hung in a very special place.
Embroidered in beautiful gradated colours onto a deep cerise pink ground this would suit a wide variety of interior settings, behind a bed, in an entrance hall
