This was a random little project done in about two weeks. I was asked by Duquesa Juana Isabella de Montoya y Ramirez if I could contribute to the gift basket given by the King and Queen of the West at the SCA’s West-An Tir War over July 4th Weekend 2010.

This shirt is a basic addition to any early 17th century historical re-enactment costume, very suitable to complete a Tercio or Musketeer outfit. Its wide collar, in the Walloon style, was very characteristic of this period. It has wide sleeves and an adjustable collar with drawstrings. The buttonholes are hand-stitched. The cuffs are adjustable with brooches, although they can be changed to laces if preferred. It is made to measure and to order, so it can be customized to the customer's taste. When ordering, we will request the basic measurements needed to be able to make it. Do you want it in another color or do you want to make any change? Do not hesitate to contact me.

This is an impressive large vintage French tapestry wall hanging with a 17th Century hunting scene. It dates from the early to mid 1900's. It is very atmospheric and would be the perfect château chic finishing touch to a country house interior. It depicts a stunning scene of noblemen and women at a hunt. They are riding fine steeds and are accompanied by their huntsmen and dogs. They are superbly attired and are surrounded by a profusion of trees and lush vegetation. The scene is framed by a beautiful border of flowers and berries. The colours are subtle shades of greens, browns, ochres and aubergine with highlights of red in the costumes. The tapestry is woven in cotton. It is very thick and heavy, weighing nearly 4.75 kg. It has a padded appearance which gives relief and definition to the subject matter. It is in good vintage condition with just a little fading to the colours with the passage of time. There are some tiny faint marks (please see photos) along the top edge where it was once attached to a batten. These do not draw the eye or detract from the appearance of this wonderful tapestry. The tapestry measures :- 193 cm (6 ft 3.9 inches) wide x 188 cm (6 ft 2 inches) high. A fantastic tapestry to add an authentic château chic statement to a room and another divine vintage French textile find from La Belle Étoffe. N.B.
