Moroccan Embroidery

I got a wondrful little email from a real expert on Armenian embroidery. Annotating this text he wrote:

Armenian Embroidery,

An Armenian Embroidery, 17th Century. Approximately 6 ft. 4 in. by 1 ft. 8 in. (1.93 m by 0.51 m.)

is not armenian but Moroccan and I got others similar examples .. for sure it is moroccan and not armenian. Sotheby's made a mistake.

I made mistake too ... lol

With my best regards

I hope to see you in next Seattle conference
