    Looks like somewhere in a middle-eastern, Muslim country to me.

    IMHO, orientalist tapestries with a likely European origin.

    Seconded. Middle-eastern "exotic" themes were hot in European decorating for a good while in the late 19th century.

    These could, of course, be newer. Lots of interest in tapestries with "exotic" themes in the 1920s. A Google Lens search will bring up examples.
