See more versions of 'Tulips' by Su_G. (http://www.spoonflower.com/profiles/su_g?shop_selection=tag&tag=Ottoman&tulip) © Su Schaefer 2014 Apparently, at certain times, the Sultans in the Ottoman empire banned the manufacture of textiles like this, as they used so much gold and silver thread that they drained the empire's precious metal reserves. The same design is also available reversed 180 degrees 'Blue tulip tapestry' (http://www.spoonflower.com/fabric/3404412). Related designs are 'Tulips woven with gold and silver' (http://www.spoonflower.com/fabric/1466641) - pale blue tulips on a bright red ground, and 'Aged tulips with gold and silver' (http://www.spoonflower.com/fabric/1466678)- darker blue tulips on a worn and 'aged' dark red ground.
