This vintage Egyptian wool tapestry is a handwoven textile that captures a lively pastoral scene with bold, stylised forms and vibrant colours. At the centre stands a radiant golden-yellow tree with a textured, geometric canopy, its orange trunk grounding the composition. Surrounding it are elegant white birds two perched on the ground with vivid orange wing details and colourful legs, and two in flight, creating a sense of movement and harmony. Set against a lush green background with abstract leaf-like patterns, the design reflects a folkloric, symbolic style often found in Egyptian weaving traditions. Crafted from hand-spun wool with natural dyes, this tapestry embodies both artistic expression and cultural heritage, making it a striking decorative wall piece that adds warmth, story, and authenticity to any interior.

Authentic vintage and antique Egyptian kilims and Tapestries are handwoven with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and one of a kind.

Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to the handmade and preloved nature, slight imperfections and flaws are not defects.

Our tapestries are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life. 

Our kilims are professionally cleaned.

It’s 1990 all over again!

In the early 1990’s, my wife I were obsessed with hand woven, vegetable dyed Turkish carpets from Azeri/Woven Legends. We spent so much time at ABC Carpet & Home in NYC, we became good friends with the head rug buyer!! We haven’t purchased a rug in years, but I found a wonderful Woven Legends carpet at Shopvintagerugs and bought myself an early birthday present. The rug was shipped from Pakistan on Monday, made its way to Dubai, then Boston, Memphis and finally arrived to us today. I couldn’t be happier!
