*********

An antique textile makes a sumptuous addition and a dramatic centrepiece to any room.

The texture brings a depth to a room that a flat canvas (painting) rarely achieves.

Of course a person could choose to buy a cheap reproduction (masquerading as \'vintage\') recently mass produced in Asia , purely decorative with minimal re sale value

or you can choose to invest in \'the real thing\' , a genuine antique.

Something to pass on to future generations, an investment that will increase in value over time
