    Hi! I'm planning a trip to Great Britain and have always been curious about this tapestry from my grandparents. Is anyone familiar with the language or symbols? Or perhaps it's just a beautiful woven piece. TIA! -Susie

      The upper right appears to be Arabic. Looks similar to the one in this link..says something like "there is no God but Allah". Scroll way down till you see, "Writing on rug"

      I just spent some time and the symbols look exactly the same! Wow!
