Tours Crest - black

French for “turns”, the origins of the “Tours Crest” coat of arms can be traced back to the 14th century. The chief of France granted the aldermen of the city of Tours the privilege of being represented in the court of kings along with 35 other mayors of communes known as “good cities” in France. The Tours are inextricably linked to the history of Joan of Arc and her testimony regarding the voices that guided her on the quest that led to her eventual burning for heresy. This particular tapestry is finely finished and highly detailed. The chenille weaving is both soft and supple, perfect for hanging on a wall in your home to give a regal look and feel. “Tours Crest” is unlined and has a tunnel for easy hanging and display.
