[QUOTE="mmarco102, post: 403213, member: 8289"]Well you all gave me a lot to think about, thanks ;) Last night when I got in I took a real quick look. Now I took in everyones comments and checked it out with a loupe, and I am shocked. Tapestry??????? There are absolutely no unfinished areas like I thought after looking at my photos. This is completely finished with approx 5 or more thickness threads including gilted color. Here is the same flower with zoom in photos. [ATTACH=full]140444[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]140445[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]140446[/ATTACH] Here is the side area that looked unfinished, zoomed [ATTACH=full]140447[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]140448[/ATTACH] The the bottom is completely finished everywhere. My God who would give this away... So Ottoman, Mughal Inspired? I can’t stop looking at it with the loupe, everywhere is differnt weaving. Leave plastic, cover, glass or open air. What is the professional preference. Additionally, the back is completely sealed brown paper. No images from there.[/QUOTE]
