This delightfully charming tapestry is full of old world charm.
It is an interestingly unusual tapestry that shows a hot air balloon in flight. There is a spirit of great adventure captured in the soaring balloon as it floats fancy-free in the air and transports one to destinations unknown, a refreshing change from the purposeful speed of jetliners. The green fields way down below reminds one of the grounded realities of life but, for the moment, the tiny basket beneath the billowing sails is where all the action is. This tapestry will, without doubt, be a delightfully different décor for any wall in any room.
The weavers of North America, who have recreated this tapestry from an artwork by Alexandra Churchill, have captured the exciting era of pioneering discoveries and inventions with remarkable skill. The materials used for this tapestry measuring 32 X 27 are a blend of cotton, acrylic and viscose.
