The textile was probably made between the 7th and 9th centuries in Constantinople, Egypt, or Syria.

These three places are thought to be where the textile is from because this textile is high-end and complicated, so the maker must have had access to complicated technology. This technology could have been found at these three locations where the largest textile industries flourished at the time.
