French Woven Tapestries FAQs

Where can I buy a French tapestry?

You can buy one right here. Every tapestry in this collection is woven in France and sold by Quality Tapestries, a family business in Visalia, California that has sold tapestries online since 2009. We offer free shipping worldwide on orders over $99, and all orders ship from the USA. Many French tapestries are in stock in the USA and ship within 5 business days.

Are your French tapestries antique?

No. They are newly made in France on modern jacquard looms. Many are reproductions of antique originals, such as the Lady and the Unicorn series at the Musée de Cluny and designs from the Gobelins manufactory in Paris, but each piece you receive is brand new.

Are French tapestries woven by hand?

No. Our French tapestries are woven on jacquard looms, which control each thread to weave the picture into the cloth. They are not printed. Each piece is finished by hand, so sizes can vary by up to a few inches from the listed dimensions.

What are French tapestries made of?

Fiber content varies by design. Most are cotton blends, often with polyester or viscose, and some include wool. Most French wall tapestries are fully lined with a rod pocket sewn into the back. The exact fiber content and lining are listed on each product page.

What designs are popular in French tapestries?

Favorites include the Lady and the Unicorn scenes, verdures (forest and garden scenes dominated by greenery), royal chateaux such as Maison Royale and Chenonceau, William Morris patterns and formal floral bouquets. See our verdure tapestries for the greenery style.

How are French tapestries different from Belgian tapestries?

Both are newly woven in Europe on jacquard looms, and both are typically fully lined. The differences come down to each mill's designs, sizes and fiber blends; some French pieces include wool. Belgium is our largest European source. Compare the two in our Belgian tapestries collection.

Do you also sell French pillow covers and table runners?

Yes. Many French designs are also available as tapestry pillow covers and table runners, so you can repeat a pattern around the room. Browse our tapestry pillow covers and table runners.

How long does a French tapestry take to arrive?

Many French tapestries are in stock at our USA warehouse and ship within 5 business days. If a design is not in stock, it is brought in from France, which typically takes about 2-4 weeks before it ships. Most orders ship via UPS, and tracking is emailed when your order ships.
