White Knight Tapestry Plaque

Product Description

From a Tournament of Chivalry between a Breton & a Bourbon knight. The medieval joust has its origins in the military tactics of heavy cavalry during the Middle Ages. By the 14th century many members of the nobility including Kings had taken up jousting to showcase their own courage skill & talents. The sport proved just as dangerous for a King as a knight. From the 15th century on jousting became a sport without direct relevance to warfare. This intricately embroidered tapestry wall plaque shows a noble knight dressed in white with his sword in the air ready to fight. Key
Features: Hand finished tapestry wall plaque Please Note: Fabrics by their nature are flexible during storage humidity & temperature may occasionally affect their shape & also cause creasing. To help a tapestry hang better we recommend using a dry iron on a Cotton setting. Lightly iron the tapestry from the centre towards the edges [on the face]. In very extreme cases the Tapestry can be stretched by pulling the panel gently by hand diagonally.
