Its advertised as a vintage 'arabesque' bedspread. It looks more like a rug of some kind since its tasselled on all four sides. The embellishments are woven onto a white canvas rather then being completely woven. I love it but I want to make sure I'm not buying a cheaply made 80s or 90s items rather then a truly vintage piece as its quite expensive. Is it possible to tell authenticity/age from these photos?
