Re: chinese silk tapestry or bedspread

To upload your pictures, you need to first set the digital camera to the lowest picture size available.

Once you have done that, you should have no problem loading your pictures.  As to the tapestry, you

have check to see if it was woven and on what type of loom.  Go to your local antique store and see if they have similar ones.  That will give you an idea as to where to start. Also, many antique rug dealers are happy to look at a picture and give you an idea of what you have. They will need to see the front and the back of the rug. A close view of the back is very helpful.
