Medieval Tapestries Medieval tapestries date back to the renaissance and Arts and Crafts periods. Medieval tapestries were woven on plush fabrics for hundreds of years by diverse cultures. Both ancient Egyptians and the Incas buried their dead in tapestry woven clothing. Important civic buildings of the Greek Empire, including the Parthenon, had walls covered with them. However, it was the French medieval weavers who brought the craft to completion. Medieval tapestries and wall hangings are ideal for decorating and adding a touch of the rich history to your home or office.
