Exquisite Old Reclaimed Needlepoint - Floral Panel 2
£52.00
I acquired a small collection of needlepoint on my travels, there are more examples currently in this department. I have kept one for myself to recover a stool I have. This was one of those finds where you make a sharp little squeak when you find it. Especially if you have a textile addiction like myself.
These wonderful examples of needlepoint are hard to find these days of this condition, design and colour. This particular design has been executed in a mix of wool based thread and then a finer strand has been used within the centre that also incorporates a cotton, both weights of stitch look very beautiful together. In fabulous condition for age. This has been reclaimed from a large footstool but it is still in fabulous condition.
Widest and longest points measure 68cm x 56cm
Approx 120 years old.
I have taken lots of photographs so you can see all the detailing. So many hours laboured to produce such a beautiful panel. Either use to recover a seat or hang on your wall with small pins like a painting.
