A Belgium tapestry is considered a piece of art and is widely recognized for the artistic flair in which it has been weaved and its excellent craftsmanship. The origins of these tapestries can be traced to Belgium where uniquely Belgium tapestry art developed out of court tapestries to become a much cherished luxury art of modern times.
Belgium tapestries may be either Bayeux tapestries or Beatrix tapestries. Bayeux tapestries reproduce the art of medieval times on Jacquard looms. Beatrix tapestries on the other hand consist of primarily nautical or romantic designs. Common designs of Belgian tapestries are medieval or floral designs, nautical or country scenes, religious or modern designs and wildlife scenes. Popular colors used include varying shades of red, blue, green, yellow, orange, brown and many more. These tapestries use the finest quality fabrics to produce masterpieces that have a lasting value.
