Fretwork is a design that has long been a popular choice of the tapestry weavers.From medieval times till today, this is one pattern that has never gone out of date. Perhaps one of the reasons behind this phenomenon is the fact that fretwork, when well crafted, is capable of attracting the eye very strongly. It is an interlaced design usually used for decorative purposes and based on geometric patterns.
Its simple lines and forms make it a hugely attractive pattern for tapestry aficionados.
A large number of contrasting colors can be used to bring out the fretwork in relief. The greater the contrast, the sharper is the attention that is drawn on to the intricacies of design. This medieval art form is capable of giving any modern abstract art a run for its money.
Placing one of these in a room is sure to be an expression of who you are and where your tastes lie.
