This is a beautiful antique French velvet panel, possibly a table runner or valance, featuring a rich maroon color and a distressed, crushed texture. The central area is framed by a delicate metallic lace border, and the bottom edge is adorned with a decorative fringe. The panel measures 230cm by 57cm. This piece would be a stunning addition to a vintage-inspired home decor, suitable for use on a table, as a decorative wall hanging, or as a unique textile for a creative project.
