Polish Folk Art Tapestry - Hand Woven Flax & Wool

Collectibles : Textiles

 

This is a great example of Polands Folk Art. It still has the original tags on it and that helps a lot to identify it, however there is no date. My first thought was 1970's because of the colors, but it could be older or newer since these are probably typical costume colors.

It is 16" x 21" not including the fringe. The condition is great! No holes or wear...all the fringe is there.

The tag states it is hand made with flax and wool. There is some information in Polish that I can not translate. "Spoldzielnia Pracy Rlia im Stan. Way. Planskiego W KRA OWIE". The small hanging tag states it has been moth proofed and is life long protection.
