OLD TAPESTRY QUESTIONS

I am doing An estate Sale and one of the items is a beautiful tapestry that I know little about. There are no markings.  If anyone could give me any idea of origin country, value, age it would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance . John

It's an odd one. Silk backing and maybe silk threads?

This may be an embroidery v tapestry with the overlay of weaving on a background fabric. Tapis patterns are usually just the actual weave and weft making up the scene. Anyone recall the name of this style embroidery?
