Name of Picture - Not known
Original Artist - Not known

Approx Frame Size :-   Height 9.75", Width 8.5",
 Approx size of Visible Silk :-  height 5", width 4",

The picture was framed in Coventry and the framer had a 5 digit phone number which suggest a Coventry Weaving  pre 1980's.  It does not have any Cash's identifiers so could have been woven by several different companies, including W H Grant who did weave a fish picture for a calendar in 1960 - but not this one.  

The picture is currently in what appear an "antiqued" gold painted wooden frame with a dark greyish green middle section and a gold inner edge. 

The picture has a light sage green mount.  

With Glass   

Although great care will be taken in wrapping the picture, due to the possibility of mis-handling by the carrier, returns or claims due to broken glass are not accepted.  The picture will be  posted at your own risk.


Most Silk pictures were created using a Jacquard Method Loom. The work setting them up was very specialised.

There is lots more information about various woven silk pictures on the internet - perhaps start your search by typing in Stevengraph" - which originally related to woven silk pictures by Thomas Stevens but seems to have morphed  to mean a woven silk or silk mix picture   

Neyret Freres  was a world renown ribbon weaving company and produced  silk weavings  somewhere between the late 19th Century and the mid 20th Century.   As far as I know they were based in Lyon - probably at St Etienne, There was some link up with Cash's of Coventry but I haven't been able to establish what the connection was.  Cash's sold a range called their "French Series"  which I believe were woven either by Neyret Freres or using their "Jacquard Loom Cards".  Many of the "Cash's" pictures have the "NF" mark in the bottom left corner.  I have a large range of Cash's pictures both the French Series and others including animals, birds, fairies and butterflies, which I hope to list in due course.  I have a larger range of the Neyret Freres and other companies silk pictures. 


Please note that I am not an expert or a business. These pictures are ones I have collected for myself over approximately 40 years.
