A STUNNING handmade antique bell pull / cord dating from the mid to late 1800's ~ this textile is French and it is stunning! ~ this textile uses decorative velvet tassels at the top on silk ground. The cross stitched body is some of the most magnificent TINY petit point I've ever seen all hand stitched in silk. This textile is backed in silk The metal additions are also gorgeous, brass?? I'm not sure at all, but they are stunning. One has a hook for hanging on the bell pull and the other is a buckle of sorts, with the long thin piece that slides down ~ I am not sure how it was hung but it is magnificent . A very very high quality textile!! ~( I found two identical , so if you would like both, simply add to your cart and change the quantity to 2 )

MEASUREMENTS: This panel measures approximately 76 inches by 3 inches ~

CONDITION: This textile is in as found, not cleaned condition with age marks on the velvet , some light damage on the side edge ( I photographed the one that is in the least wonderful condition ) This textile is in lovely condition for it's age and use but not without signs of time and use ~*~
