Narrator: It is a noun. A tapestry is a heavy fabric with pictures or patterns woven into it.
Narrator: Skilled weavers interlace coloured threads to form scenes, stories, or designs.
Narrator: The word comes through Old French tapisserie, from Latin tapete, meaning a cloth or carpet.

Podcast 2 — In conversation
Speaker A: We saw the most stunning medieval tapestry hanging in the castle hall.
Speaker B: Lovely — a tapestry, that heavy woven fabric with whole scenes stitched into it.
Speaker A: Exactly. The colours were so rich, telling a story of knights and forests.
Speaker B: They always do. And there's a lovely figurative sense too.
Speaker A: Yes — the guide called the town's history a rich tapestry of cultures.
Speaker B: That's the one — many varied threads woven into one whole story.
Speaker A: What's the difference between a tapestry and a rug?
Speaker B: A rug lies on the floor. A tapestry usually hangs on a wall as a picture or decoration.
Speaker A: So a tapestry is woven art to be seen, not walked on.
Speaker B: Precisely. And tapestry is close to mosaic in the figurative sense too.
Speaker A: How do those differ?
Speaker B: A mosaic is made of small fixed tiles. A tapestry is woven threads — softer, flowing, interlaced.
Speaker A: Any common mistake?
Speaker B: Using it for any old cloth. A tapestry always has a woven picture or rich pattern.
