We
are certain that should you be interested in purchasing a
tapestry, you will find this information extremely valuable
and helpful.
HOW
ARE TAPESTRIES PRICED?
The price of a tapestry depends on how many hands it passed
through before you buy it. The traditional tapestry
business model, before RealTapestry.com, was as follows: Manufacturer to Exporter to Distributor to
Showroom to your wall. All levels marking up the product for
profit. The price you pay can also be affected by how much overhead expenses
a company may have or how many employees they must pay to work
in their showrooms. As you can see, these factors often makes the price of a tapestry
quite expensive with other companies. Our huge tapestry
purchasing volume allows us to negotiate exceptional pricing with
direct Exporters and
Manufacturers throughout the world to bring you the best
tapestries at the best value anywhere. We directly import and
receive all of our tapestries... then we ship them promptly to
you. This eliminates all of the unnecessary mark up and
ensures that your tapestry reaches you as fast and at the best
price as possible.

Is it the same tapestry?
If a tapestry's picture and dimensions are identical, then it is the SAME
tapestry. Some tapestry websites try to convince you that
their tapestries are "superior" or to their
"exclusive specifications". We ask that you
not believe this hype from these deceptive retailers.
Because of international copyright laws, most tapestry designs
can only be woven by the manufacturer that created the
design. Many weeks of work go into the design and
manufacturing preparation of a tapestry. The subject matter may
be woven by different weavers but there will be some
differences in the tapestry. For example, the border may
be different or the design will have some distinct
variations. Our tapestries are only from the highest
quality weavers. We back our words by giving you our 30
Day 100% Money Back Guarantee to ensure you love your
tapestries from RealTapestry. Back to Top I saw a the tapestry in a local showroom.

Artwork Sublimation. What is
that all about?
Jacquard Tapestries - Tapestries were originally woven by
hand, by commission from royalty. In today's world most
reproduction of ancient tapestries are done using a Jacquard
loom. Invented by Joseph Marie Jacquard, it allowed a single
operator to weave intricate patterns. Today's Jacquard looms
are computer operated and can produce truly stunning results
in limited time. Jacquard woven tapestries are a great way to
own classic designs without spending a lot of money. Hand
woven tapestries - Although the original European weaving
"ateliers" ( Gobelins, Beauvais, Aubusson, etc.) are almost all
been converted into museums, there are now new sources for
hand woven tapestries. China is the country that produces the
most hand woven pieces. The biggest reason for this is labor
cost, as it takes several weeks for a two person team to weave
a single hand woven tapestry. These tapestries are more expensive than the
machine (Jacquard) woven tapestries but they are truly masterpieces
of craftsmanship that will be kept in families for generations to come.
Northern Africa, Spain, France, and Italy all produce fine quality
hand woven tapestries. Although RealTapestry can get hand woven
tapestries from many sources, we choose our hand woven
tapestries based on price, quality, and value. Should you wish to
purchase a Certified Aubusson hand woven tapestry woven in Aubusson,
France... no problem, we can get it! RealTapestry has
weavers throughout
the world for all kinds of tapestries: custom designs, limited
editions, antique reproductions, modern, etc. If we can't get
a tapestry for you at the best value, then it most
likely is not woven. Artwork
Sublimation Tapestries
- Capturing on a tapestry the fine detail and subtle color
gradient that exists in the masterwork paintings and frescos
from Europe has always been difficult. New from Belgium
and offered by RealTapestry,
comes this highly detailed sublimation method of reproducing
artwork on tapestry. Because of the fine detail in the
finish, these tapestries look gorgeous in very large sizes.
Not even hand woven tapestries can compare to these fine
sublimation tapestries when you are recreating the artwork from masters
such as Botticelli, Michelangelo, Rembrandt, Van Gogh, Picasso
and many others. Back to Top
