A pair of 17th century Mortlake tapestry panels of cherubs, circa 1660, with flowers, fruit and parrots, standing above scallop shells, later framed, 152 x 41cm, overall 161 x 50cm
Purchased from Humbleyard Antiques in 2008
£1,500-2,000
Condition:
Both have slight mildew blooms to surfaces. They appear to have been cut from larger panels and have been stitched together quite crudely with some later fabric used. Worn and holed to some surfaces and more so to borders. Colours muted. Some old repair and some repair required. One marginally larger.
