Description

This lot comprises a set of elaborate, custom-made draperies with matching pelmets/swags and decorative tie-backs, designed for tall windows or French doors within a grand interior. The curtains are crafted from a heavy textile, likely a brocade or damask, featuring an all-over woven floral and foliate pattern in muted tones of beige and off-white. The pelmets are adorned with extensive fringed trim, and the drapes are secured by braided cord tie-backs with substantial, multi-tiered tassels. Stylistically suggestive of Late Victorian or Edwardian design, the presence of a modern illuminated “EXIT” sign indicates these are either later additions to a historic building or part of an opulent, traditionally styled interior subject to contemporary safety standards.
