What does this mean?

Thank your for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be an early 20th century cotton rayon fabric machine woven french Sovali wall tapestry in faded condition. Those were made in large numbers and often exported to north Africa or the Orient frome where they then were sold back to Europe. Identical machine woven harem scene tapestries have been sold and offered at auction.
The estimate is based on auction results. "Asking prices" based on arabian night attributions may vary and might be higher.
