    I have a unique tapestry that has a signature. The tapestry tells a story with camels, workers, a sail boat and people harvesting something out of trees. It is quite wonderful and very colorful. I wonder if anyone recognizes the signature.

    Your signature is in Arabic. Looks woven, rather than tapestry. I suspect it's from Egypt.

    Woven means produced on a loom, using a shuttle to weave threads in and out. Tapestry is stitched using a needle into fabric.
