It’s a little ironic that as AI-generated art becomes more ubiquitous – and, in some circles, more valuable – vintage tapestries and tapestry-inspired prints are having such a moment.
Much of the appeal lies in age, or at least our perception of it. Techniques like verdure tapestries date back to the 16th through 18th centuries, carrying a cultural and tactile weight that feels increasingly rare – unless you’re chronically online, in which case you’ve already seen the design trend popping up everywhere, styled by your favorite tastemakers.
If you can swing an actual antique, more power to you (we’ve included one for good measure). If not – or if you want the layered, botanical look without committing to a true tapestry – there’s no shortage of compelling alternatives right now.
Ahead, 24 stylish takes on the timeless textile – designed to add depth, narrative, and a sense of history to even the newest of homes.
The Round is Homes & Gardens' collection of the must-have pieces shaping styles, trends, and ideas. It brings together thoughtfully curated products that express a single moment – offering readers inspiring ways to style their homes through seasonal themes, emerging looks, and everyday pieces.
