Tapestry art on walls here in Venice is popular since Venice was created one thousand years ago. Imagine silk, tapestry walls as art features? I stayed on a five-hundred-year-old palazzo where many rooms were covered in historical tapestry.
A tapestry is a form of textile art, traditionally woven by hand on a loom. it was used in Italy in many palazzos. I see it in Venice frequently. Tapestry is weft-faced weaving, in which all the warp threads are hidden in the completed work, unlike most woven textiles, where both the warp and the weft threads may be visible. It is important to know the difference and appreciate the work that goes into it.
Wonderful historical tapestry here Ca Sagredo Hotel Venice.
Tapestry is a heavy handwoven reversible textile used for hangings, curtains, and upholstery. Or in this case and characterized by complicated pictorial designs, on palazzo walls. It was a display of wealth and luxury living. It is also common to see a nonreversible imitation of tapestry used chiefly for upholstery. The images in this article are 500 hundred years old and they are untouched.

Hence the arrival of sleepcations. Hotel breaks are designed around getting a restful night’s sleep, so you go home feeling genuinely refreshed.
It all comes down to the art on the wall you choose to sleep in.
Tapestry Handbags
Vintage handbags were also come to see and use during this era as well. I predict winter accessories for any occasion.
Throughout many palazzos here in Venice it was very common to commission an artist and create your very own museums of art.
