The Mintakan tapestry was a woven picture of designs placed on a piece of hide, and was made by the Mintakans of Mintaka III.

In 2366, a tapestry was given to Captain Jean-Luc Picard as a gift when the USS Enterprise-D visited the planet. From that point on, the tapestry was either displayed on Picard's quarters or ready room aboard the Enterprise-D. (TNG episode: "Who Watches the Watchers?")

Following the destruction of the Enterprise-D in 2371, Picard managed to rescue the tapestry and later displayed it in his ready room aboard the USS Enterprise-E. (TNG eBook: A Sea of Troubles; TNG movie: Star Trek: First Contact)

The tapestry was destroyed during a Hirogen attack as the Enterprise scouted subspace tunnels emanating from the Azure Nebula; relay overloads on Deck 1 had caught the ready room and its possessions on fire. (TNG novel: Losing the Peace)
