<p>Unicorn tapestries are a sort of textile art which is woven on a vertical loom with two sets of interlaced threads The most common weaving material used is cotton or linen. As far as threads are related, the common one is wool- but we find other types as well like cotton, silk or even gold and silver to impart a deeper finish and texture.
