Adding to its authenticity, you'll find the manufacturer's emblem adorned with delicate Lys points discreetly in the lower right corner. Furthermore, a beautifully detailed border featuring intertwining leaves and branches in soft cream, beige, and green hues gracefully surrounds the central scene, adding an extra layer of elegance.
This remarkable tapestry is ready to adorn your living space with its timeless beauty.
