Mirrors, wood beads and Cowrie Shell Tassels are added to produce an exuberant effect. Hanging a Tapestry - In general, tapestries look best when hung 4"-6" away from the wall. - Best when matching hanging rod, finials & drapery rings with clips are used. - Ideal viewing distance is 8'-12'. This allows best appreciation of the color, mirror work, bead work & embroidered patterns. - Any creases in the tapestry can be removed by careful pressing in non-steam mode on the reverse side.
