Re: Vintage Transylvania wall hanging identification
Thank you for that wiki page, its so interesting!
I contacted the Cluj-Napoca ethnographic museum and they stated that these hangings were produced in the years of Saxon settlement in Transylvania from middle ages right through to fall of the Eastern block. I think this one is definitely late 19th or early 20 century.
Can anyone suggest textile collectors who may be interested? It needs to be in a good collection, not in Australia where I am.
