#VA-205- Six Piece Egyptian Scenes Plush Tapestry - $9.00 -

Era - ?
Measurements - 2 are 12 x 12 inches plus fringe, 3 are 18 x 18 inches plus fringe, 1 is 22 x 40 inches plus fringe
Label - none
This is a six piece set of cotton plush tapestries with cotton fringed ends. I am really unsure of the age of these. Going by the items that I got with this, I would guess it is at least from the 1960s, maybe older than that. Two small matching ones have scene of men, camel and the Sphinx in the background. Two slightly larger squares have men on running horses going to the left, with a third panel the same size that has the same scen, but with the men going to the right. The larger rectangle panel has a great scene of the sphinx with pyramids, and people on camels and donkeys.

Condition - I have not tried to clean these. The two small ones are very good, with some faint marks in the blue background. Of the three in the next size, one is very good with just some surface dirt, one shows a little more dirt and spotting and the 3rd (shown in close up photo) has more noticeable stains and light colored stains on it too. The large piece is very good with some light surface dirt, and I must admit that when I laid it on the floor to look it over, Boris came in and laid down on it when I wasn't looking.
